Inspiration
Technology has shaped the job market in numerous ways but the most notable impact technology has had on the job market is reliance on technology more than humans which has ultimately led to a loss of job for many people. Beacon aims at creating jobs by bringing in an ecosystem of never ending supply and demand for job.
What it does
The application basically bridges the gap between someone who wants a service and someone who has the skill to provide that service and also employs methods to ensure quality service and flexible prices are provided.
How we built it
The application is built as an android application with Firebase serving as the data management tool.
Challenges we ran into
Since my teammates and I are new to android programming, setting things up initially was a bit challenging.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
A Brilliant model to create jobs for people who can provide services.
What we learned
Team Skills, Android Studio, Firebase APIs.
What's next for Beacon
Hosting a more reliable, sustainable application with much more interesting features such as analytics, Flexible pricing model and tip matching.
