The increased migration of students, professionals, and people to different cities for education, employment, or any other reason has led to a need for affordable and convenient accommodation. The conventional way of looking out for hostels, PG, accommodation rental, and many such facilities is through the help of brokers, local recommendations, social media, and various online websites. This process might involve brokerage fees, scattered information, lack of property information, and comparison of available facilities. This project introduces Nexora, which is a web-based platform for accommodation and essential services. This website will be able to help users look out for suitable accommodation based on their needs and locations. This website will help property owners also to list out their properties for potential users. It does not just limit itself to accommodation but also offers various services like mess, laundry, and vehicle facilities and thus helps a user meet all his needs from the same platform. Its location-based and proximity-based capabilities make it easier for the user to find accommodations that suit his needs in terms of convenience relative to his workplace or educational institution or desired location. The application has been built using Node.js and Express.js for its backend, MongoDB Atlas as its database management tool, Cloudinary as its media management tool, and JavaScript, Bootstrap, and CSS for frontend development. Nexora brings together accommodation and the required services in one platform and in doing so makes it easier to find accommodation and reduces reliance on middlemen by providing a one-stop solution to those searching for accommodation and other related services.
KEYWORDS
The platform of Nexora that is created in the course of this research serves as a unified web-based solution for accommodation discovery as well as access to key services [1], [3], [6]. By using accommodation listings, listings of owners, location-based search, integration of maps and services like mess, laundry, and vehicle, the platform solves many problems which arise during searching of accommodation in a new city [2], [5], [7].Node.js, Express.js, MongoDB Atlas, Cloudinary CDN, JavaScript, Bootstrap, and CSS are the technologies used to provide the necessary infrastructure for building and maintaining the platform [3], [6], [8]. The platform helps students, working professionals, and other people by providing all the accommodation details and services in one place.
