Chingu Time

Make scheduling meetings across different timezones easier with Chingu Time!

This Project is part of the Chingu.io Voyages - [#17 - Project Vue-01]

Preview

Description

This is an ongoing project with multiple purposes in mind.
First of all, we wanted to create an easy, simple way to schedule events/meetings for people in different timezones.
Secondly, this functions as a project to learn vue.js, a major frontend library, node.js as the backend and MongoDB as the database.
If possible, this project will be constantly updated and will hopefully have new features in the future.
