Matcha

This project is about creating an app allowing two potential lovers to meet, from the registration to the final encounter. A user will then be able to register, connect, fill his/her profile, search and look into the profile of other users, like them, chat with those that he matched with.

To meet all the required features, a Full Stack Javascript  stack has been chosen: React + Tailwind for the client, we used Node.js + Express for the back with the help of **Socket.io** to handle all the real-time events in the application and Postgres for the database.

Through this project, we learned about:

• Micro-frameworks
• Users account management
• Sockets
• Geo localisation
• Data validation and security
