Learning by creating projects [Part 2]

Here we work on the first epic Project Listing and Selection:

User stories

  1. As a user, I want to browse and search for projects so that I can discover interesting projects to work on.
  2. As a user, I want to see projects displayed as cards with relevant details and descriptions to quickly assess their suitability.
  3. As a user, I want to filter projects based on categories and tags to find projects that align with my interests and skills.
  4. As a user, I want to click on a project card to view more details about the project, such as its objectives and requirements.
  5. As a user, I want the project listing page to have a clear and intuitive layout, so I can easily navigate through the available projects.
  6. As a user, I want to have a "back" button or link to return to the project listing after viewing the details of a specific project.
  7. As a user, I want the project listing to be regularly updated, showing the most relevant and up-to-date projects first.
  8. As a user, I want the website to remember my preferences and show me relevant project recommendations based on my previous selections.
  9. As a user, I want the project cards to include an image or icon representing the project, helping me quickly recognize and differentiate projects.
  10. As a user, I want to easily share interesting projects with my friends or colleagues through social media or email.
  11. As a user, I want to have a search bar to find specific projects based on keywords or project names.
  12. As a user, I want the website to load quickly and be responsive, providing a smooth and efficient browsing experience.
