Bucket List

A group travelling application to plan trips, share each other's location with fellow companions so that no one is lost during the journey, keep journel of trips, split expenses after a trip and so on

The problem Bucket List solves

When we and our friends are on a trip in separate vehicles, it happens almost all the time that we have to stop somewhere and call the other party, who's on the other vehicle to get updates about their location, as they are nowhere to be seen. Haven't we all wanted a platform or an application where we could travel together as a team, where each of our team members' live location was shared, so that no one gets lost. Another thing we all wished to have after our trips will be an expense divider! And we all must have definitely given a thought on keeping a beautiful journal on our trips. And what about seeing journals of other travelers and getting to know how they made those trips possible. As the tempest stirred by this virus - corona slowly settles, we have to change our old ways of planning and going for a trip and embrace some new changes.

Challenges we ran into

We are a small group of amateurs trying to build an app but as a group we tried to overcome the problem. Designing and wireframing part of the application went smoothly by using the figma application. Front-end coding was also not much difficult as we had a basic knowledge of flutter, but where we got stuck is the backend part. We had no idea what technology to use for the back-end. After conducting many google meets, we finally decided to do it with node.js.
