Project Description
Real-time polling applications provide a dynamic and engaging way for users to create, share, and participate in polls, gaining valuable insights from their audience. Currently, users often face challenges creating and participating in polls with immediate visibility into live results. Existing polling tools may lack the seamless integration of real-time updates and interactive visualizations, limiting the overall user experience.
To address these challenges, the real-time polling application aims to provide a comprehensive solution for users seeking an intuitive, real-time, and feature-rich polling experience. This application will allow users to effortlessly create, share, and engage in polls while enjoying the benefits of instant feedback through real-time charts and analytics.
After completing this project, we would have built a polling application that does the following:
Allows users to create various polls.
Allows real-time updates and visualization as votes are added.
Allows users to vote securely on polls.
Allows users to like polls. This allows them to decide whether to come back and find the polls they have liked.
Allow users to share the poll results on social platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.
Allow users to download poll results along with their corresponding chart.
