You could have improved ...

This was not a project meant to be used by anyone so there are a lot of things that can be optimized and some features that should have been implemented. But this was just a project to learn on so I didn't spend more time than I needed to and just implemented the features in the simplest way.

How do I try it out

1. Go to the project root.

2. pip install -r requirements.txt
