In this report, I will be going through the process of building a full-stack project management web application that aims to streamline both the students and the supervisors experience during group projects, or more specifically, for the Design Innovation Project (DIP) module. The DIP module currently lacks a centralised platform for both supervisors and students to work together on, which leads to a slew of problems ranging from lack of communication, to difficulties in allocating tasks amongst group members. This project aims to help users collaborate and track the progress of the project more effectively though the use of a centralised web application platform by utilising one of the more popular project management frameworks, the Scrum framework. For the client-side web application, Angular, a TypeScript based application design framework is used to build a Single Page Application (SPA). Angular Material, a UI component library, is used to design and develop the various components seen on the website. For the server-side or backend application, AdonisJS, a Node.js web framework is used to store and deliver data in the form of APIs.
