In development of application:-

1)HTML & CSS:-

HTML acts as the building blocks, creating the structure of the web-page. It's like
arranging the different elements on a canvas, such as text, images, and buttons. CSS
steps in to style these elements, determining how they should look. It's responsible for
choosing colors, fonts, and layouts, making sure the user interface is visually pleasing
and easy to navigate.

Lawmate System 5
 2)PHP:-

is like the backstage coordinator, working on the server to handle tasks that users don't
directly see. When a user interacts with the web-page, PHP processes their requests.
For example, when filling out a form, PHP validates the information, communicates with
the database, and ensures everything runs smoothly. It's the behind-the-scenes
scripting that adds functionality to the user interface.

3)PostgreSQL:-

PostgreSQL acts as the digital repository for your application's data. It's where
information is stored in an organized manner, akin to neatly arranged digital files.
ensuring that the right information is retrieved or stored securely.

4) JavaScript
JavaScript is integral to the portfolio management system, operating primarily on the
client-side. Its key functions include input validation and the implementation of toggle
buttons. Through JavaScript, user inputs are scrutinized for accuracy, enhancing data
integrity. Moreover, toggle buttons offer users convenient controls over system features.
This client-side scripting ensures smooth interactivity, optimizing user engagement.

CHAPTER 4 : Limitations and Enhancement
4.1 Drawbacks and Limitations
The current system exhibits notable deficiencies in its communication and privacy
protocols, warranting immediate attention and rectification.

Firstly, the absence of a direct messaging feature severely hampers efficient

communication between users and their designated legal representatives. This limitation
undermines the platform's functionality, hindering the swift resolution of legal inquiries and
issues.

Moreover, the lack of a "forgot password" option poses a significant obstacle for users
encountering login difficulties. This oversight leads to user frustration and potential
abandonment of the platform, impeding user engagement and satisfaction.

Furthermore, the system's privacy framework appears insufficient, as it fails to adequately

safeguard user data and maintain confidentiality. The unrestricted accessibility of user
profiles raises grave concerns regarding privacy infringement and data exploitation, eroding
user trust and confidence in the platform.

Additionally, the commenting feature suffers from inherent vulnerabilities, as users face
challenges in discerning the authenticity and reliability of posted comments. This deficiency
not only undermines the credibility of user feedback but also exposes the platform to
misuse and abuse, jeopardizing its integrity and functionality.

Addressing these shortcomings is imperative to enhance the system's efficacy, user

experience, and overall integrity. Implementing robust communication channels, enhancing
privacy measures, and fortifying user verification processes are essential steps towards
restoring trust and confidence in the platform.

Lawmate System 17
4.2 Proposed Enhancements
here are the proposed changes to be implemented in the next update:

Introduction of Direct Messaging Feature: Introduce a direct messaging feature to facilitate

seamless communication between users and their designated legal representatives. This
feature will enable users to communicate directly with their advisors or representatives,
streamlining the resolution of legal inquiries and issues.

Inclusion of "Forgot Password" Option: Implement a "forgot password" option to address

login difficulties encountered by users. This addition will provide users with a mechanism to
reset their passwords independently, reducing frustration and enhancing user experience.

Enhancement of Privacy Framework: Strengthen the privacy framework to safeguard user

data and maintain confidentiality. This entails implementing stricter access controls to user
profiles, ensuring that only authorized individuals can view sensitive information.

Improvement of Commenting Feature: Enhance the commenting feature to improve

authenticity and reliability. Implement measures to verify the credibility of posted comments
and mitigate the risk of misuse or abuse. This will enhance the integrity of user feedback and
foster a more trustworthy platform environment.

These changes are crucial for enhancing the platform's functionality, user experience, and
overall integrity. Implementing these updates will not only address existing deficiencies but
also contribute to the platform's long-term viability and success.
