Community Website & Database

This build centres on a user-driven community site backed by a solid database. Core features include individual user profiles, private messaging between members, and a straightforward email-and-password authentication flow with registration, login, forgotten-password reset, and session handling.

The front end must feel clean on desktop and mobile, while the back end should expose well-structured data models for users, messages, and any shared assets we add later. I am flexible on the stack as long as it follows common standards (for example, React or Vue paired with Node, Django, Laravel, or similar, plus a relational database). Security best practices—hashed passwords, prepared statements/ORM, input validation—are non-negotiable.

Deliverables
• Responsive interface covering profile creation/editing, inbox-style messaging, and the auth screens
• Database schema and migration scripts
• Fully functional API or server-side routes supporting every front-end action
• Brief deployment guide and commented source so another developer can extend the project easily
• One short demo video or live staging link proving everything works together

The job is complete when I can spin up the project, create an account, edit my profile, exchange messages with another test user, and log out and back in without errors.
