This app allows the customer to place their respective order, single quantity each time and the shopkeeper, ready with the items informs the customer who can then collect their shopping basket after the successful scan of QR code. This eases the work of shopkeepers, too, by removing the state of muddle and shortage of items. This app proves to be a great helping hand to the government in combating the spread COVID -19 and at the same time providing its citizens with a sufficient amount of food.
Axios is the customer side app platform, while Bazinga is the shopkeeper side app platform. They both work on geolocation services. Only shops available in particular zipcode are shown. The authorities would have to first provide some sort of data related to these local shops so as to prevent misusage of the app, and then the shopkeepers would be able to use the app. Therefore, if anyone wants to check out how the app works, it is recommended to get in touch with the team at [email protected] to help set up a shop account.
This app allows a person to order items online at a nearby shop. The shopkeeper can then easily manage his goods and see the demands of particular goods. A token is generated for the customer, and the customer is notified when it's the turn of his token. The shopkeeper will have to keep the order of the customer ready thus minimizing the time the customer will be out. In this way, the customer can go and collect his stuff in a period of 10 - 15 minutes by easily ordering from home, wait for his turn, pay for it and collect it.
Since the whole project is quite big, we faced few issues while building and connecting the app. We faced a few issues in integrating a few pub packages due to they're incompatibility with the default set minimum set Android SDK version.
