Codeathon 2018: Code for Asia

This is a prototype of a platform that allows anyone to search for quick jobs around the corner.

   

   

About

  • This Android app was created for the problem statement of "How might we make possible more flexible working opportunities?"
  • Team members: Addison Ho, Cai Jie Feng, Gan Chin Yao, Giam Ju Xian, Lim Sing Jie
  • This app was created in 24 hours for the hackathon called codeathon 2018 organized by Code for Asia

How this app works

  • User can submit a new job request listing, or take up existing job listings from other users
  • This app is targetted at mundane day-to-day tasks, such as cleaning of rooms, walking the dog, buying groceries, baby sitting, cooking etc.
  • The map interface allows users to browse through listings by location
  • Upon completion of a job listing, users can earn points, which can be exchanged for rewards such as gift vouchers or promotional discounts from participating merchants
  • This is a self-sustaining platform whereby a user can be both job-seeker and job-lister

How to use

  • Change the google_maps_key in google_maps_api.xml file to access Google Map Services. To get a google_maps_key, follow the official documentation provided by Google. If you do not change the google_maps_key to a valid one, the Map interface will not work properly. However, other aspects of the app will still work.

Note

  • This app was created in 24 hours as an entry for a hackathon competition.
  • As such, this app is not complete and not fully functional. If a button could not be pressed, there is a high chance that the button is not yet implemented in this prototype. Bugs may be present.
  • Code was written quickly to meet the 24 hours deadline. Therefore, coding standard may not be strictly adhered. Hardcode was used to speed up the process.
  • This app was a one time project and will NOT be updated anymore.
