A fullstack project management application built using the PERN (PostgreSQL, Express.js, React, Node.js) stack. It serves as a centralized platform for effective collaboration and project organization, developed as a project for SFU CMPT 372 Spring 2024 by Group 24.

For instructions on setting up a development environment and getting started with CollabHub, please refer to CONTRIBUTING.md.

• Implemented a secure, session-based authentication system, and integrated with third-party authentication provider using OAuth 2.0

• Developed complex, role-based user interfaces and managed user permissions by introducing an administrative dashboard that allows for comprehensive management of users and projects.

• Implemented CRUD operations using Express.js and Sequelize as the ORM for PostgreSQL to manage data.

• Tasks within projects can be moved between lists (To Do, In Progress, Done) via a React-based drag-and-drop interface or a dropdown menu.

• Implemented role-based access control within projects, with roles such as Owner, Editor, and Viewer, each having different levels of privileges, from full project management to view-only access.

• Integrated Socket.IO, a WebSocket library, to facilitate real-time, bidirectional communication between users for enhanced collaboration.

• Leveraged Google Cloud Storage, a cloud-based storage, for file sharing and uploading within projects, with a built-in React-based file previewer supporting various file types.

• Enhanced user experience by implementing a robust search functionality that allows users to search for project-related entities, users, and other projects. This search functionality uses Sequelize's operators for case-insensitive and multi-field matching, providing efficient and flexible search options to users.

• The application is deployed on a virtual machine instance using the Compute Engine service provided by Google Cloud Platform. The PostgreSQL database is hosted on Google Cloud SQL, and file storage is handled using a Google Cloud Storage bucket.

• Easily sign up, log in, or use Google Sign In to access the platform.

• Administrators can manage users and projects, including viewing total users/projects, managing user roles, and more.

• Get started by creating a project or joining others'.
• Project customizations:
  • Adjust project descriptions
  • Add members
  • Assign roles
  • Attach files
  • Manage project membership
• Projects have three distinct roles each with tailored permissions:
  • Owner: full control of the project
  • Editor: interact with the project (e.g., create tasks, upload files, etc.) but not allowed to change more critical information like project details and members’ roles
  • Viewer: view projects and comment on tasks

• Seamlessly manage tasks across "To Do," "In Progress," or "Done" sections.
• Features:
  • Modify descriptions
  • Set due dates
  • Assign users and files
  • Establish priority levels
  • Add comments

• View and manage chats with ease using the chat icon located at the top right corner.
• Chat options:
  • Create new chats
  • Manage participants
  • Edit chat names
  • Change chat membership

• Upload files to a project and attach them to tasks to keep track of them more easily.
• Built-in file previewer with support for various file types.

• Efficiently search for project-related entities such as members, files, and tasks within projects.
• Explore users and projects outside of current project contexts.
