Future Plans
A project is never complete! I'm planning to continue expanding the feature set of this app with these possible ideas:
- Expanding to accommodate multiple communities, along with a new admin role for each community
- Expanded trinket detail, to allow for attaching user manuals or linking videos to instructions
- Basic messaging system to allow users to share instructions for pick-up or drop-off.
- Community Projects, where users can share what they created using tools or supplies borrowed from others
- Karma system that rewards users for lending more items, or having more items available to borrow.
