The problem SmartMonitor A Digital Signage Solution solves

Created an IoT based Project in which user can using our website send media (images/videos) to specific Smart Monitor(s) controlled by Raspberry Pi to be displayed.
The user can control the duration for which the image is displayed, on which specific monitors it is displayed and choose the specific time duration when it is displayed.
The solution is deployed via Docker

Challenges I ran into

As this was my first Node.JS based project I faced several issues.
Numerous issues were dealt with via research online and using references.
Major Design Phase based hurdle was choosing the best UI Frontend for display compatible across multiple devices. We went ahead with JavaFX over other choices.
A major hurdle we ran into was while deploying it on Raspberry Pi.
Our Raspberry Pi required substantial configuration issues caused by JavaFX
