PINBOARD

INTRODUCTION:
We built a web based application called “PinBoard” which is quite similar to the Original Pinterest and has the same kind of features also; we build this web application for the understanding of Database – in this we build the backend database on MySql with the frontend developed in J2EE – JSP, JAVA Servlet. 

Our application has the following features and assumptions:

•      A user can login if she has an account otherwise she can signup by filling some details.

•      User can create boards and can pin pictures they like into their board.

•      User can search for any picture and pin it to their board.

•      A user can setup his profile picture which would be displayed in his dashboard.

•      User can create own board/s or can follow some other boards

•      People organize pins into collections called boards, and share their boards with others. The same pin might be pinned to lots of different boards across lots of interests, making boards a great place to discover new stuff.

•      User will be recommended with different pictures depending on his likes.

•      User can add new friends by sending friend request, can reply to the friend request by accepting and rejecting.

•      User’s pinned pictures can be liked by his/her friends and other people also; they can comment on the pictures and also re-pin them.

•      User can search for new pictures according to their interest under different boards.

•      People can follow all of someone’s boards or just the ones they like best. As they discover and follow more pinners and boards, their feed becomes more relevant.

•      Here user can find interesting pictures and can pin it to their pinboard.

•      Different users can pin, like, comment and repin the pictures.

•      User received friend request can accept, rejects and keep the request on the pending state.

User can view his friends on Friends tab available on user’s board.
