The problem KU-pasal solves

KU-pasal connects the local community to sell, buy and exchange their used goods and services quickly and easily so that anyone can post an announcement on their cell phone or on the website itself. We offer you a free website where you can find and sell a wide range of new, fresh and used –second-hand products like Guitar, laptops, mobile phones, furniture, stationery items, goods, and local services, and many other products.
At KU-pasal we believe in making KU-pasal a better place: we improve students’ lives by bringing them together for mutual benefit exchanges. Sellers can easily earn some extra money simply by publishing products they no longer use or those they want to sell - thus, allowing buyers to find high-value items at reasonable prices.

Challenges we ran into

We faced a lot of challenges during this hackathon, which we eventually overcame with hours of debugging and Googling. During this hackathon, when we were midway through our journey, we messed up our hard drive while managing file permissions, so we had to start again from scratch. In the process, we had a chance to learn a lot about system files and configurations, API management, sandbox, and hosting web servers. Finally, the huge challenge of collecting all the data from the backend and integrating it with the front-end required a huge effort. However, we pride ourselves on meeting these challenges and creating a functional, impressive product with the times. It was a fun ride fueled by team spirit and cooperation!
