Our project was inspired by the Vueling challenge. We thought making a system where one of the constraints was that it was to be used without internet was quite a challenge, and one were up for! We borrowed a Raspberry Pi from the hackathon organization, which we have set up as the central device of the system: it acts as a wireless access point, server, ... All devices which wish to connect to the system have to connect to the wireless access point created by the Pi, and browse to the page 'vueling.air'. The system will then open, with the information about the current flight, information about weather on arrival (downloaded before departure), multi-player games to play with their fellow passengers, music, different podcasts (downloaded before departure), information about the city and the country they are heading to, ... The system is built using Vue.js at the frontend and Java (with the Tomcat server) and SQL on the backend. Some other tools, like bash scripting, have also been used at some point, as well as open source tools and libraries. The backend is executed in the Raspberry Pi (which also serves the frontend).
