At-Home

Problem

People often require home appliances services and many other services to their homes. Some of them cannot find such services nearby, especially when they are new to that place. Some of them cannot make appointments with the required services.

Introduction

We came up with an idea of At-Home, a web portal that enables users to avail of such services. Using At-Home a person can find service professionals like plumbers, electricians, carpenters, etc. A user gets nearby service professionals as their suggestions based on their locality. The user can book an appointment according to his/her availability. Our portal also suggests the best fare services to the users.

• Our application ensures scalability in these aspects:

  • Administrative Scalability
  • Functional Scalability
  • Geographic Scalability

• We are going to achieve this using MERN stack and Azure Cloud Platform for hosting.

  • Application level Security
  • User Specific Data Sources

• We will achieve this using the “JWT Authentication Tokens”.
