• Content Moderation: Introduce content moderation features to ensure high-quality and appropriate content.

• Third-Party Integrations: Consider integrating with external services, such as cloud storage or payment gateways, to enhance the application's capabilities.

• API Documentation: Provide comprehensive API documentation to guide developers in interacting with the API effectively.

Limitations

While the "NewWriters" backend API strives to provide a reliable foundation for the "NewWriters-Android" application, there are a few limitations to be aware of:

• System scalability depends on the underlying infrastructure and database performance.

• Continuous monitoring and maintenance are important to ensure the API's availability and responsiveness.

• Data security measures should be regularly reviewed and updated to maintain user data protection.

These limitations highlight areas for potential growth and refinement as we work towards delivering a robust and user-focused backend API.
