Challenges we ran into

Challenges:

• Ensuring user password security during signup: We used bcrypt to hash the password when the user signup and saved the hashed password in the database.

• Customizing the audio player to our needs: We fixed it by using wavesurfer.

• Showing specific comments/tags when the audio is played: We fetched the whole data of comments and tags when the player is loaded and then took the current time played from wavesurfer. We made a 1-second interval to change the state and changed the mapping of comments and tags accordingly.

• FFMPEG crashing on our machine: We had to reconfigure the Path and System variables to make it work.
