# retfig

Retfig (Gifter) is a collaborative tool designed to streamline the process of finding and deciding on presents for various events. This project facilitates easy collaboration among friends, family, or colleagues by allowing users to create event-specific pages, share invitation links, and together curate a list of present recommendations. Participants can add, vote on, and comment on present ideas, making the decision process interactive and inclusive.
