Team-Collaboration-CollaborationwasacrucialaspectofIntoday,requiringreal-timeupdateswhenmultipleusersworkedonthesameproject.Thechallengewasensuringthatallusersreceivedinstantupdateswithoutmanualrefreshes.WeaddressedthisbyimplementingFirebase’sreal-timelisteners,whichautomaticallyupdatetheUIwheneverataskismodified.Furthermore,weintegratedin-appnotificationsusingFirestoretriggerstoalertusersaboutnewassignments,projectupdates,andcompletedtasks,enhancingoverallteamcommunication.

Role-Based-Permissions-Managinguserrolesandpermissionswasanotherkeychallenge,asdifferentusers—Admins,editor,andViewers—neededvaryinglevelsofaccess.Ensuringdataprivacyandsecuritywhileallowingflexibilityinprojectmanagementwasatoppriority.WesolvedthisbyimplementingFirestoreSecurityRules,whichdefineaccesscontrolatthedatabaselevel,ensuringthatuserscanonlyvieworeditdatabasedontheirroles.Additionally,weintegratedOAuth-basedauthenticationtoprovideasecureandseamlessloginexperience.
