Inspiration
there are other ride sharing apps out there, but this app streamlines the process of finding different potential commuters for your departure and destination locations in a safe way.
What it does
Links you with other users based off of slack channel membership to bring together people that might be going to the same locations. Make it easier to find others to commute with.
How we built it
We used react native to implement the project across both ios and android platforms.
Challenges we ran into
Getting the database set up to add/save/retrieve information about other users was a difficult process.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We got the maps working to a certain extent, we successfully link to slack, and the user interface is relatively decent.
What we learned
Half of our group had never used react-native before so we learned alot about react native, both on how to create visual elements, but also how to work with javascript on the backend.
What's next for Driver-Diver
Get the database fully implemented so that users can create new potentail car pool regions and link with others along with some slack functionality to speed up the communication process. Also get the UI polished up.
