Project description
To prove the technical feasibility of the idea, we prepared a PoC within a short period of time. We solved the problems with emails getting into spam and at the same time ensured the required anonymity in communication by developing a mail proxy server for routing. This server is used to send mail to recipients, as well as to receive incoming mail, process it, and forward it to other participants in the conversation.
For website development, we decided to choose Next.js as the most suitable framework for creating productive and SEO-optimized websites. Design and page mockups were provided by the customer, our task was to develop the backend and create the page layout.
Next, we developed an admin panel for the work of a system administrator. Added functions for viewing published posts and viewing and deleting spam ads.
