Challenges we ran into

1. One of our team members was not available and had to drop out last moment. So workload for each of us increased.
2. Learnt a lot about Razorpay and it's various API products, found them really intuitive and developer friendly.
3. Initially had decided to go with Firebase for hosting but it made things overly complicated, using plain VM with nginx was ultimately the best solution for us.
