- used flask to establish a python restAPI and used an sqlALchemy for my database
- used plain html instead of angular.io. (later on i would like to use angular to make my frontend pretty and add more features
- linked my html templates to flask and used a localhost:5000 to run my webpage.
- did not implemet the upvote and the downvote, i was not sure how and i ran out of time.(something i definitely want to implement later on as i build this page)
- did not finish other features such as seeing all users online, newsfeed and all groups plus if one wants to create a group.(something i will work on in the future.
- upvoting and downvoting a comment
- seeing all users online
- having a news feed and ability to create a group
