The problem Velocity Mart solves

In our campus, resource reusability poses a significant challenge, particularly among hostel students. Items such as books, notes, sports equipment, mattresses, and other essentials are frequently underutilized or discarded, contributing to unnecessary waste and environmental impact. Compounding this issue is the absence of a centralized platform that facilitates efficient renting or sharing of these resources within the hostel community. As a result, valuable assets go unused, and individuals struggle to find the items they need, leading to inefficiencies and frustration. Hostel students require a solution that promotes resource sharing, minimizes waste, and provides a convenient way for them to access and rent various items essential for their academic and personal needs.

Challenges we ran into

There was a major issue in integrating the chatting application into the website as the chosen plugin conflicted with the existing framework, causing functionality errors and page layout disruptions. To overcome this hurdle, we conducted a thorough analysis of alternative chat plugins, ensuring compatibility with our platform's technology stack. After rigorous testing and evaluation, we successfully integrated a suitable chat solution that seamlessly blended with the website's design and functionalities, ultimately enhancing user engagement and satisfaction.
