Welcome to the 2nd part of this series on using technology to foster sustainability in your community! In this tutorial, you’ll continue building Kartpool — a community driven delivery platform for the ones who need it the most!

Be sure to read Part 1 of the tutorial series thoroughly and complete the exercises before you proceed with this tutorial!

To recap, here’s the list of features:

Feature #1: A location-based store discovery service from where users could buy grocery and other essentials. You already built this in Part 1.

Feature #2: Users can select a store and add a wishlist of essentials that they intend to buy. This wishlist would be visible to other residents.

Feature #3: Any other resident can choose to accept this person’s request and become a wishmaster. Then, they can purchase the items from the store on behalf of the requestor and deliver it to them.
