The purpose of this document is to present a detailed description of the Web Application. This is made only for Fresno State students. The user is for students of Fresno State who want to give up items that will help other students especially for those in dorms and others who are tight on spending but still need required materials for certain classes. This is an avenue to help find what they’re looking for and create a system in which it’s through a familiar environment when it comes to the exchange. The goal is having a more stress-free journey through college and having the cycle of having fellow students helping future students prosper in the environment. This application will also deal with a forum in which students can post questions or have discussions on certain classes, general guidance, and tips to get them ahead and prepared.
This project is aimed at providing a means for students to donate items they no longer need within their college community. The target audience for this application are students attending the school where this is implemented. Users will be able to create listings and view listings posted by others to donate something or see if they can find an item they are interested in. An administrator will be able to moderate these listings and users. The moderation will consist of removing listings and revoking user access. This web application will require internet access and a verified school email address. Internet access is required to access the website and is used to transfer information to the database.
