+# Gig Connect
+**Tier:** 2 – Intermediate
+
+## Description
+**Gig Connect** is a platform that allows users to find short-duration, small-scale work opportunities (“gigs”) within their local area — such as **plant-watering, grocery pickup, local tutoring, household fixes, dog-walking, item shifting**, and more.
+
+Unlike traditional job portals, this platform focuses on **quick, task-based, hyperlocal gigs** instead of long-term employment.
+
+### Purpose of the Application
+To connect people who need small tasks completed with individuals looking to earn extra income in their free time.
+
+### Resources Needed
+- Region-based or **location filtering**
+- **User authentication**
+- **Gig listing** system and user application functionality
+- Optional: **Payment gateway integration**
+
+---
+
+## User Stories
+- User can **create an account**.
+- User can **post a gig** with task details, expected time, and payment.
+- User can **browse gigs** posted by others nearby.
+- User can **apply** for a gig.
+- User can **chat/message** the gig owner to coordinate task details.
+- User can **mark a gig as completed**.
+
+---
+
+## Bonus Features
