Collaborative Budget Planning and Sharing #600
Description
Description:
Allow users to create shared budgets with family or friends, track collective spending, and set group goals. This feature would enable real-time collaboration on financial planning, with notifications for budget overruns and shared expense tracking.
Proposed Plan:
Extend the group expense management feature by adding budget sharing capabilities.
Create new models (e.g., models/SharedBudget.js) and routes (e.g., routes/sharedBudgets.js).
Update services/groupService.js to handle shared budget calculations and notifications.
Modify the dashboard to show shared budget views and invite mechanisms.
Integrate with the notification service for alerts on shared budget changes.
Implement access controls to ensure privacy and secure sharing.
