Future implementations for improvements

Jungle is a work in progress and has opportunity for new features and improvements of existing features:

• sign up and login pages lack style;
• admin authorization is basic and should be updated to be user-specific;
• user interface in the admin dashboard lacks cohesive style;
• categories within the admin page could be made clickable;
• email receipts have not yet been implemented for purchases.
