Domain Specific Features

Overview

This project implements a domain-specific system designed for tracking and discussing financial assets. The key features include an Asset Information Page, Interactive Charts, Latest News Widgets, and a Forum for collaborative discussions. These features are tightly integrated to provide a seamless user experience.

Features

1. Asset Chart

  • Example: 
    <ChartContainer symbol="NASDAQ:AAPL" />
  • Use Case: Appears on asset-specific pages (e.g., domain.com/assets/NASDAQ-AAPL) to help users analyze trends.

2. Asset Info

  • Description: Displays metadata such as market capitalization, trading volume, and current price for a given asset.
  • Implementation: Dynamically fetches and displays data based on the asset's symbol.

4. Forum Integration
