My-Collection-Project

My Collection is a collection app that allows a user to scan the barcode of an item to fill out parameters of an item to add to their collection. Once added to a collection the user can view their collections, view entries in their collection, edit entry details, sort the collection, select one at random from the collection, go to a random item from all their collections, and future plans to improve the control of your collection. Upc scan will fill out some fields of the entry but once entered entry details can be updated if not done in scan. Collection types help the app set parameters for entries in the collection and will be used to flesh out further features for specific types. Currently Movies, Books, Video Games, and General are the available options. Video Games categories and options for showing if lent out for an entry are things still for future updates. An AI feature has been added that will allow the user to ask for suggestions for what to add to a particular collection. The user will have to get a token from https://openrouter.ai/ but the app prompts that then saves the token as part of user's database.
