## Overview

LostNFound is a university lost-and-found mobile app: users report lost or found items at a location, upload images, and can see image-based matches in a recovery section. The README also names Firebase Authentication, Storage, Realtime Database, and Analytics. The supplied tree contains no application source or module directories, so the graph reflects documented capabilities only; implementation paths and undocumented wiring cannot be verified.
