Encountered Challenges: #

  • Integration Complexity: The integration of the frontend with the backend presented complexities, especially in managing state and ensuring the UI updates promptly with backend changes.
    • Solution: We utilized advanced state management techniques and employed websockets for a more responsive user interface that reacts in real-time to backend updates.
