Client's needs
The Client came to us with an idea to build an app for travelers and adventure-seekers. The project, he had in mind, was to develop a mobile app, that would attract tourists, and will help them get lots of their routine and annoying tasks solved easily. As the budget was limited, we decided to start with the landing page, which would help to measure the demand for such an app and test the initial idea. Hence, the client came back with the designs, and we started the implementation process. We’ve created a simple prototype website, started with basic marketing, and the first applications to the wait list followed soon.
What Inforce did
Front-end side
React Native
React Native simplified mobile app development by allowing us to use a single codebase for both iOS and Android platforms, saving time and effort.
JavaScript/TypeScript
JavaScript or TypeScript powered the app's logic, making it dynamic and interactive for users.
Expo
Expo provided tools and services to build and test the app, making development smoother and more efficient.
React Navigation
React Navigation made it easy to navigate between different screens within the app, improving user experience.
Axios
Axios handled communication with the app's backend, allowing it to fetch data and interact with APIs.
UI Component Libraries:
These libraries offered pre-made UI components, making it faster to create a visually appealing and user-friendly interface.
State Management
Redux or the Context API managed the app's state, ensuring that data flowed smoothly between different parts of the app and improving overall performance.
Features Implemented
Profile of the traveler
The app allows users to create a profile where they can track their journeys, check off countries they have visited, and receive achievements based on their travel experiences.
Communication and collaboration
a person is able to connect with like-minded Nomads, see their planned trips, get notifications about friends' plans to travel, update shared wishlist locations, etc.
Nomad Maps
with this feature, users can see where their friends, friends of friends, and even public accounts are sharing their plans to travel. This feature allows people to stay connected with travelers nearby.
Personalized recommendations
every user had an opportunity to add a summary of the trip, which would help to make the recommendations more tailored and individual.
