ABSTRACT
This project presents the development and implementation of an e-commerce platform designed specifically for graduating students and relocating staffs to sell their used items to incoming students. The aim is to facilitate a sustainable, cost-effective, and convenient marketplace within educational institutions, promoting a circular economy and reducing waste.
Our platform addresses a common issue faced by students: the accumulation of items that are no longer needed after graduation or relocation, coupled with the high cost of acquiring similar items for new students. By providing a structured, secure, and user-friendly interface, the platform enables seamless transactions between sellers and buyers, ensuring both parties benefit from the exchange.
Through extensive research and development, the platform has been tailored to meet the specific needs of students, taking into account their preferences and behaviors. Surveys and feedback from target users have been integral in refining the functionalities and ensuring the platform’s usability and relevance. In implementing this solution, we utilized modern web development technologies, ensuring the platform is scalable, responsive, and accessible across various devices.
