CheckMates

Demo: CheckMates Demo

Description

CheckMates is a web application that allows users to upload a picture of a receipt to split the tab with friends. It is particularly useful when one person pays for a meal for a group, and everyone needs to figure out how much money to send the person who paid.

How It Works

  • Frontend: The frontend application is built with React and MUI styling framework.
  • Backend: The backend API is developed using ASP.NET Core.
  • Database: The application uses a MongoDB database.
  • Infrastructure: All infrastructure is hosted on Azure.
  • Receipt Parsing: The Azure Document Intelligence service is used to parse the receipt.
  • Real-Time Collaboration: SignalR is set up in both the frontend and backend to allow real-time server-side events using WebSockets. This enables multiple people to edit the same receipt in real-time.

Future Functionality

  • Payment Service Integrations: Plans to integrate with payment services such as Venmo, CashApp, Zelle, and more.
  • Progressive Web App Enhancements: App is confiured as a PWA but we should implement versioning so app is updated and make sure the icon shows up.
  • Custom Domain: Custom Domain
  • Receipt Collections: Allow users to group receipts to split all amoung friends
  • Manual Receipt: Allow users to create manual receipt, user adds each item.

Fixes Needed

  • Improved SignalR: SignalR set up is basic and sometimes requires rejoining the receipt with the code in order to see the real time updates.
