DIU Lost and Found
July 2025Website
The DIU Lost & Found System is a complete web application built to digitalize and streamline the process of reporting and recovering lost items within the university. It connects students, faculty, and the security team through a centralized platform with role-based access and real-time updates. I developed the system end-to-end using React, building both frontend and backend logic, APIs, authentication, and optimized UI for smooth user experience. The project was also based on real user research and discussions with university security officials.
A full-stack lost & found platform that connects students and security to recover items faster through smart tracking and automation.
