Team SME at Thought Experiment Labs helps Canadian small to medium sized business owners increase their revenue, boost profitability and modernize operations in the digital age.

The main goal for the project is to build a web application using the MERN stack that will help small to medium sized businesses find new opportunities, grow their operations, modernize, boost profitability, and increase revenue. The application should adhere to industry standard software engineering principles. This will involve several different steps for the learners, including:

- Understanding the requirements and goals of Thought Experiment Labs, Team SME and other details

- Designing the architecture of the web application using the MERN stack.

- Developing the front-end and back-end of the web application.

- Testing and debugging the web application to ensure it meets industry standards.

- Deploying the web application and providing documentation for future maintenance.

By the end of the project, learners should complete the following tasks:

- Detailed documentation of the web application's architecture and design.

- Fully functional front-end and back-end code for the web application.

- Test cases and debugging reports to ensure the application meets industry standards.

- Deployment of the web application on a hosting platform.

- User and administrator documentation for the web application.

Final deliverables:

- Source code for the web application through private Github repository.

- Documentation for the web application's architecture, design, and maintenance.

- Deployed web application accessible through a provided URL.
