Pixbattle is a responsive web application which allows any user to set up a photo contest with a group of his choice (family, friends, colleagues etc.).
The idea was found during the coronavirus crisis by Maxime Parola, our client, who wanted to find a way to maintain social ties despite the lockdown.
The principle of the game is for a user to create a group by inviting some friends or family members and organise a photo contest on a particular topic.
Each member has to upload a picture and in the end, after discovering all the pictures, will have to vote for his favorite ones. The winner will choose the theme of the next contest.

The projet has been developed for 2 months as part of the web developement training program at Wild Code School.
The aim was to create and deploy a full stack web application (React.js, Node.js and MySQL) for an entrepreneur and apply the knowledge acquired during the training (agile methodolody, customer management, coding, deployment etc.).
This 2-month real-life project has been an even bigger challenge for our team as we were working remotly.
