Feature and Functionality Ideas

[Ciaranengelbrecht]

Just a place for some potential features we could implement depending on everyone's thoughts, and of course when we are further along in development:

• Custom themes for users to select their own backgrounds/sticky note colours
• Avatars for users to select for their profile
• Drag and drop functionality for re-arranging notes
• Possible live collaboration? Real time updates on notes for simultaneous collaboration and responses (involve sockets a bit from the latest lecture)
• Tags/Categories and search functionality
• Attachments for notes, uploading images/screenshots/documents
• Definitely more of a long term idea, if at all, achievements/rewards for users to earn points or badges based on their contributions and task completions

Keen to hear what others think about some of these features or any additional ones we could implement.

I'm conflicted on whether reddit style avatars with a builder would or wouldn't be totally awesome compared to user images. It's outside scope unless someone brainwaves how to do that, but came to mind with avatars.

I'm thinking a profile popup section (separate to 'about' and 'settings' pages) for themes/colors, profile pic, username/display_name, etc. Can have a little person icon:
