Features

• When users arrive at the home page, they are prompted with a call to action to either login or signup.

• Once users log in or sign up, they are redirected to the search page.

  

  • This page allows users to search for an opportunity by keyword and filter by state.

  • Users are presented with their search results; the opportunity, who to contact about the opportunity, and the option to save.

  

• Users can access their saved opportunities and any opportunities they have created on their profile. Here, users can delete any saved opportunities and edit or delete any they have created.

  

• If a user would like to add an opportunity, they click create in the navbar. This brings users to a create form where they can submit their opportunity.

  

Work In Progress

The following features of the Assist application are works in progress or (WIP).

• Rendering content from create form onto cards that render to a user's profile and displays in the search
• User can save opportunities to their profile
• Using an additional API to pull from even more opportunities
• Creation of calendar page so users can manage their opportunities and see upcoming events near them
• Color-code search result cards based on when the event is happening. Grey = past, red = currently happening, yellow = in a few days, green = 1+ week(s) away.
