This project was implemented for the needs of my bachelor thesis. The main goal was the creation of a user friendly application, providing a pleasant experience along with a useful service.

I got the idea of creating this application during my studies, after a series of unpleasant experiences with public transportation. Thinking about it, I realised how many cars move daily from place to place, taking up space in the streets while at the same time creating waste, for just an individual. In many ways, public transportation is essential, but why not make the best out of all these empty cars moving around, too? And it’s also a great way to meet new people. Helping others, even with actions as small as this one, is important and inspiring people to do so is one of my main goals in life.

Although I created a basic API, using Node.js and Relational Databases (SQL), emphasis was mostly given on the client-side, for a well and properly designed interface. For these purposes, I used HTML/CSS, ReactJS and Bootstrap. For the design I used Figma to create initial mockups and basic painting tools to design my logo.
