About This Project
Property Pulse is a full-featured real estate web application focused on user-friendly property discovery and listing management. Built using Next.js 14 and MongoDB, it includes interactive map integration with Mapbox, Cloudinary image management, and robust authentication with NextAuth. The platform allows users to browse, search, and filter listings, as well as add, edit, and manage properties as owners.
Key Features
- "📍 Map Integration: Property listings are shown on an interactive map using Mapbox for a visual browsing experience.",
- "🏠 Property Management: Owners can create, update, and delete property listings with images and geolocation.",
- "🔒 Authentication: Secure sign-in and user session management using NextAuth.",
- "🖼️ Photo Gallery: Cloudinary integration for uploading and displaying high-quality property photos.",
- "🔍 Advanced Filtering: Users can search by keyword, location, and type (e.g., cabin, apartment)."
Challenges Overcome
- "Challenge: Ensuring precise geolocation mapping with third-party services like Mapbox and Geocode APIs.",
- "Challenge: Integrating Cloudinary for seamless image upload and dynamic image rendering.",
- "Challenge: Balancing UI responsiveness while managing heavy media content and API calls.",
- "Challenge: Creating a unified experience for both property owners and renters with role-based features."
What I Learned
Building Property Pulse gave me the opportunity to implement dynamic geolocation features and media management with Cloudinary. I learned how to architect a modern full-stack app with authentication, filtering, and map-based interactivity. This project also helped me fine-tune the user experience across different roles (owners vs renters) and strengthened my ability to manage state and async logic using Next.js.
