Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Regenesis York aims to promote sustainability by encouraging the efficient use of shared resources within the community. The goal of this project is to create and manage a digital borrowing system that allows community members to easily access reusable items. This system will reduce waste and promote the reuse of items such as tools, books, and household goods. The project will involve designing a user-friendly web application that allows users to browse available items, reserve them, and track their borrowing history. The system should also include an administrative interface for managing inventory and user accounts. By implementing this digital borrowing system, Regenesis Toronto hopes to foster a culture of sharing and sustainability within the community.



Key components of the project include:


- Developing a web application for item browsing and reservation.


- Creating a user account system for tracking borrowing history.


- Designing an administrative interface for inventory and user management.


- Ensuring the system is secure and user-friendly.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

The project deliverables will include a fully functional digital borrowing system that meets the needs of Regenesis York and its community members. Specific deliverables are:


- A web application that allows users to browse, reserve, and track reusable items.


- A user account system for managing borrowing history and personal information.


- An administrative interface for managing inventory and user accounts.


- Comprehensive documentation and user guides for both community members and administrators.
