AppDev Hack Challenge
MyShelf allows sellers to post new books for sale and add listings to existing books in the database. Sellers are able to view all their listings and associated important information. The app gives buyers the ability to compare prices, conditions, and sellers of books or items. Buyers can also search for specific books using a search bar. The app is meant to be organized in a user friendly manner to help students find what they are looking for.
