Our client was determined to revolutionize the process of giving away items for free with an intuitive mobile app. Their vision was to create a digital platform where people could effortlessly distribute their unused goods, thereby fostering an environment of community spirit and sustainability.
App workshop
Our team commenced the project with a detailed app workshop. This interactive meeting provided us an opportunity to thoroughly understand the client's vision and map out a functional and aesthetic blueprint for the application. We conducted user journey mapping, UI/UX designing, and finalized the app's features during this stage.
Development
Utilizing the Flutter framework, we created a cross-platform app that ensured seamless performance on both iOS and Android platforms. For the backend, we opted for the Spring framework. This Java-based framework allowed us to build a scalable, reliable backend infrastructure to manage the app's diverse functions, such as item listing, user profiles, and community interactions.
The completed application boasted a suite of features specifically designed to cater to our client's unique needs. These included geolocation capabilities for locating nearby items, a swift and intuitive process for creating user profiles, and an easy-to-use interface for adding and reserving items. A real-time chat solution was also implemented to facilitate seamless user interactions. This, coupled with the integration of a secure map function, made it simple for users to find and reserve items in their locality.Moreover, we implemented a user rating system to enhance trustworthiness and reliability within the community. To keep users updated on their reservations, items of interest, and relevant activities, a push notification system was added. Each feature was carefully crafted and implemented to ensure an exceptional user experience.
