As a Full Stack Developer, I have developed StateFlow 1.0, a comprehensive property management web application designed to streamline the oversight of rental properties. This personal project, released in April 2024, is aimed at providing a robust solution for managing various aspects of property management efficiently.
StateFlow encompasses a wide range of features to facilitate property management tasks. It allows users to manage rental contracts, store and retrieve tenant information, track billing history, and manage mortgage details. One of the key features of StateFlow is its ability to generate comprehensive financial reports for each property, giving users a clear and detailed view of their financial status. This holistic approach helps property managers and owners make informed decisions based on accurate and up-to-date data.
StateFlow employs a variety of AWS services, including S3, EC2, AMI, IAM, and CDN, which have been instrumental in overcoming challenges and supporting the development of ambitious web app projects. Specifically, AWS S3 is used for secure, long-term storage of tenant contracts, ensuring their reliability and accessibility.
The application is hosted on an EC2 instance powered by a custom AMI configured for Ubuntu server, NGINX, and Node.js, offering a stable environment with a fixed IP address. Geolocation-focused CDN configuration across the Americas enhances load speeds from multiple locations. IAM roles and permissions secure access and operations within the S3 bucket.
Throughout StateFlow’s software development lifecycle (SDLC), from ideation through analysis, design, modeling, programming, testing, and launch, the developer expanded their proficiency in mastering new technologies by 40%. Following the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern ensures the application remains organized and scalable. This design choice supports future enhancements, making StateFlow an adaptable tool for property management. Incorporating the D3 library has improved UI/UX by 30%, effectively managing property reports and data visualization.
Overall, StateFlow 1.0 represents a significant step forward in property management solutions, offering a comprehensive, secure, and user-friendly platform for managing properties and related financial aspects.
The development of StateFlow 2.0 is currently underway. This new version will introduce additional use cases and optimizations, further enhancing the application’s functionality and performance. The upcoming release aims to build on the strong foundation of StateFlow 1.0, offering users even more powerful tools to manage their properties efficiently.
