Kurakoo is a website where you can make friends (safely) and learn more from people you trust. Kurakoo is an online community of people providing answers to questions just like Quora site. Kurakoo is especially for school-college students, people from around the different colleges visit Kurakoo to ask questions from a community of people who answer them.
In Majority of the Colleges and Universities across India, having so many queries from "Which branch to choose?" to "How to crack interview?". A One-Stop Solution can be to bring up an application where students can drop down their questions for public View, that can be accessed by anyone and those people knows the answer they can share their point of view.
Project Managers, Developers and Designers would be collaborating on various domains like:
-

-
Front-End Development with ReactJS
-
Developing Backend APIs with NodeJS and MongoDB
-
Working on a NoSQL Database Management System
-
Working on a User-Experience rich platform for a Social Cause
This would be an enriching experience for all Student Developers, Project Managers and Designers.
-
Coding Languages: Javascript (MERN Stack)
-
Tools & Technologies: React, MongoDB, Express, NodeJS

Below is the basic idea how the website will work. We will also be working on adding more features to the Project, like sharing the questions ,following people and to whom it benefits the most which would allow the other User to filter and view specific content.

- For each issue, a detailed explanation is mentioned in issue ticket itself, for more details refer to figma design.
- While making any component, make sure that the code for the all generalised/common components must be kept in src->components->common folder.
- Kindly keep the source code in the src->components folder while making the specific components. ] - Please make sure to adhere to the folder structure of the project.
We will also be working on adding more features to the Project.
