Better Lost and Found
I, like many others in this school, have had trouble with losing things in school. My interest in coding inspired me to develop a Lost and Found app to remedy this. Users add their belongings to a shared catalog, where they can post their missing items to the entire school (or at least everyone who uses the app) for others to find and report to you. In turn, when you find someone else’s item, you can directly message the owner in the app to let them know when and where to meet you and retrieve the item.
