[Audio] "Slide 3: Project Development The project development phase of VolunteerHub was initiated by Avishek Sen and Salman Farshi, two individuals who recognized the need for a comprehensive, web-based portal to improve the volunteer experience and address digital infrastructure deficiencies in volunteer management for non-profits. The first stage of development was the requirement gathering phase, where our team analyzed the functional and non-functional needs of our stakeholders to ensure the final product would meet the expectations and requirements of both volunteers and organisations. Next, the UI/UX design phase was implemented to create intuitive and accessible interfaces for the portal, making it user-friendly and easy to navigate. The development of the backend and database was a critical stage, with a focus on building a scalable and secure server-side logic and data storage system to support the portal's functionality. Finally, the integration and testing phase ensured seamless functionality and robustness across all system components. Through rigorous testing, we guarantee a smooth and efficient experience for our users. In conclusion, the project development phase was a crucial step in creating a dynamic volunteer engagement portal. With requirement gathering, UI/UX design, backend and database development, and integration and testing, we were able to develop a comprehensive and user-friendly platform for both volunteers and organisations.

[Audio] We will discuss the technological foundation of VolunteerHub on slide number 4, our dynamic volunteer engagement portal. VolunteerHub was built using a modern technology stack, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the frontend and PHP, Python, and Node.js for the backend. MySQL is the chosen database, with PostgreSQL used for enhanced data integrity. Design constraints, including GDPR compliance, scalability, and role-based access, were also considered. This enables us to provide a secure and efficient platform for volunteer engagement, continuously adapting to meet the evolving needs of our users. Our commitment is to provide a top-notch experience for volunteers and coordinators..
