Inspiration
The inspiration came from the government of India and Twitter, Recently the people of India started posting on twitter about the conditions of trains, surprisingly the government has been responsive and fixing the issues. I hope the same for Mexico
What it does
It provides a platform for people of Mexico city to connect together for sharing personal opinions of the transportation system, thereby providing data which can be made available for everyone, for example we can now know which paths have an affinity towards being late or which ones are unmaintained, this data can also be used by transportation providers for betterment for their system. If a user wants to tell others about bad roads in a bus route the he/she can simply click and post a photo of it for everyone else to see.
How I built it
the backend is in firebase, the app is built with cordova/ionic
Challenges I ran into
This being my first mobile app I had very little knowledge of the subject, so basic app development seemed not so easy.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I finally learned app development and i think this app is really useful.
What I learned
I learned to develop android apps using ionic, got handy with javascript
What's next for Ride Mexico
Well.... definitely a better UI
