-> Technical Stack:
Frontend:
- HTML, CSS, JavaScript
- React.js for building user interfaces
- Bootstrap for responsive design
Backend:
- Node.js with Express.js framework
- Java for business logic implementation
- RESTful APIs for communication between frontend and backend
Database:
- MongoDB for scalable data storage
Cloud Services:
- AWS or Azure for cloud storage and services
- Docker for containerization and deployment
(Docker allows developers to run many containers simultaneously on a host, while also
allowing the containers to be shared with others.)

-> Conclusion:
This project aims to create a positive impact by providing a platform that connects those in
need with those willing to help, while also offering an opportunity for helpers to earn a
