The problem The name of our project is BARTER. solves

So, bascially a barter system is an old method of exchange. This system has been used for centuries and long before money was invented. People exchanged services and goods for other services and goods in return. The history of bartering dates all the way back to 6000 BC. Introduced by Mesopotamia tribes, bartering was adopted by Phoenicians. Phoenicians bartered goods to those located in various other cities across oceans. Due to lack of money, bartering became popular in the 1930s during the Great Depression. It was used to obtain food and various other services. It was done through groups or between people who acted similar to banks. If any items were sold, the owner would receive credit and the buyer’s account would be debited. So to simply quote an example of barter is bread provided in exchange for butter. Our team, i.e, Lrn_Grw_Hack(meaning Learn, Grow and Hack) have simply redefined the definition of this age old custom. Our sole aim is to tackle a very simple though important issue which is often over-looked. The problem is that a lot of student who pass out a particular class have their books and different stationery material just as junks which really becomes a piece of so called waste to them and it actually ends up in some recycling area so we thought that it would be much better that if there re like if there if two people having the same issues could share from each other so we created this platform where two individuals can share things with one another.
