Synaptix

Synaptix Devlog – Day 2 🚀
Today I worked on the app/admin.tsx file and completed roughly 50% of it.
Most of the session was focused on building the admin interface, organizing components, and refining the overall structure for future features.
✅ Progress:Continued development of the admin panel
Implemented core UI sections
Improved code organization and maintainabilityReached ~50% completion of admin.tsx
The goal is to finish the remaining functionality tomorrow and start connecting the admin tools to the backend.
Slow progress is still progress.

DAY 1 (SYNAPTIX MOBILE APP)

this is the mobile app which i have started working on.
basically i have a complete picture of the app in my mind and just started to code.
made the logo and other assets today and currently working on its foundation.

About the App……………
Synaptix is a community-driven knowledge hub — upload your notes, download what others share, join study groups, and grow together. One app, all learners.

What’s Inside (everything that i’ve thought of)
Everything a student actually needs
📚Study LibraryReal-time feed of all public documents powered by Firestore live listeners. Filter by Notes, Books, or Papers. Search by title or subject. Bookmark anything for later — synced to the cloud.
💬Student Corner–Join or create subject-based study groups with real-time chat. Password-protect your group for private circles. Members get notified when new messages arrive.
⬆️Upload & Earn–Upload your notes, books, or research papers straight from your phone to Cloudinary’s CDN. Earn 3 coins per upload and 2 more every time someone gives you a 5-star rating.
⭐Star Ratings–Rate any document from 1–5 stars. Each user’s rating is stored individually in a Firestore subcollection — scores are honest and per-user, never gamed.
🔒Password-Protected Files–Lock files and groups with a password. All passwords are SHA-256 hashed with salt before storage — not even the developer can see them. Verification compares hashes, never plain text.
🧑‍💼Profile & Notifications–Edit your name, bio, and profile photo. Track your uploads, joined groups, and bookmarks — all stats refresh on screen focus so they’re always up to date.

currently i am planning to use cludinary service for file storage and transfer because it is FREE. if you guys have any other suggestions or better alternatives please tell.
