Description

The Expense Splitter project is a web application designed to simplify the process of splitting expenses among multiple users, such as friends, roommates, or colleagues. It allows users to input their expenses, specify who paid for each expense, and automatically calculate how much each participant owes or is owed to settle the debts.

• Automatic Calculation: Automatically calculate how much each participant owes or is owed based on the expenses entered and the participants involved.
• Debt Settlement: Provide options for settling debts among participants, including splitting expenses equally, proportionally, or customizing the repayment amounts.
• Expense History: Maintain a record of past expenses and settlements for reference and transparency.
• User Authentication (Optional): Implement user authentication to ensure secure access to the expense splitter features and data privacy.
• Responsive Design: Ensure the Expense Splitter is accessible and functional across various devices and screen sizes, including desktops, tablets, and mobile phones.
