Our mission is to create a budgeting application that makes budgeting a simple, friendly, and intuitive process for our users. Many budgeting apps face the problem of being over complicated or underwhelming, we want our users to feel like their being helped rather then put to work. Above all us we want our users feel the weight lightened by our application in their pursuit to budget their income rather then be overwhelmed by it.
- Ability to sign up and connect via Okta
- Ability to connect their bank accounts through Plaid API
- Custom categories based on the preferences and needs of the users
- Automated or Manual process of checking and handling their budgeting process
- Information and suggestions on budgeting based off of users demographic and goals
Why did you choose this framework?
- React is a diverse and varied front-end framework with multiple intuitive dependencies/hooks that make for a not only clean but effective front-end codebase.
- Redux is a flexible and efficient stage management framework that allows a front-end developer to not only distribute state freely across their application but also gives them the freedom to customize how it may be rendered.
- Okta is being used to be on par with engineering standards. It's the latest in safe and secure sign up/sign in processing as well as authentication. It is also built in with a number of useful features for the user to recover and update their information as needed.
- Axios is the dependency we choose for accessing API endpoints on the front-end through GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE requests.
- Dotenv is what was used to store sensitive information that only our developers should be aware of and have access to for the security of our application.
Why did you choose this library?
- We choose Material-UI because it is a naturally intuitive styling library. It contains built-in responsive elements, flexible styling methods, and overall clear and concise documentation for its numerous features.

- Jest is what we choose to use for our front-end testing because React has built in connections for Jest's testing library, Because of this we are to effectively create tests with little to no doubt in its accuracy with the results.
- REACT_APP_ISSUER - URL that is used for verification with Okta
- REACT_APP_CLIENT_ID - ID assigned to each user/team that is needed for verification with Okta
- REACT_APP_SERVER_HOST - Designated Host for maintaining your Frontend within different environments
