HobbyClub

Introduction

HobbyClub was a first-year assignment for the Application Development course, were a team of four developers had to create a simple project mainly web-based. After some discussions, Stoyan (one of the members) came out with the idea of creating a website for students where arrangements and groups of friends would be managed. And thus HobbyClub was born.

• User registration for more privileges.
• User profiles for more specific personal information.
• User avatar, for a customized picture per user.
• Flexible club management: private or public clubs.
• Flexible event management: private or public events.
• Messages Board for users intercommunication.
• Online Feedback support.
• Club Rating System, giving 'stars' to famous clubs.
• Latest events, clubs and registered users on the front page.
