This mobile application is build on React Native. Friendify is an app to connect you to new people and make memories.
- HTML / CSS
- React.js / React Native
- Javascript / Typescript
- REST APIs
- Next.js
- Node.js
- PostgreSQL
- Figma
- Draw SQL
What was my motivation for this app? Some people have a harder time to come out ouf their shell to find friends. Friendify simplifies the whole experience and connects you to aweseome people. Friendify is for everyone, whether it's experiencing adventures with various people or if you just feel the need to talk to someone about personal problems.
On sign up you can decide to only become an Experience User or also an Experience Provider (this can be changed on your profile later). Providers are displayed on the Homepage. Providers set their available timeslots when clicking on the plus button of the calendar screen.
As a User you can visit the profile of Providers, check out their personal information, what experiences they provide and what rating they currently have. If you like the experience provided by this person you can go to his / her free timeslots and book a timeslot with him / her. The booked timeslots are then displayed as blue for the User and red for the Provider in their respective calendar.
The User can then click on the booked timeslot on the calendar and rate the Experience Provider.
Clone the repo from GitHub and then install the dependencies:
git clone https://github.com/stevelaschan/friendify-mobile-app
cd friendify-mobile-app
yarn start
Setup a database with postgres on your computer:
psql <login>
CREATE DATABASE <database name>;
CREATE USER <username> WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '<pw>';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE <database name> TO <user name>;
Create a .env file with the userinfo for the database and create .env.example as a template file for userinfo
Use migrations:
yarn migrate up
To delete data from database run:
yarn migrate down
To run the development server:
yarn start
Your project can then be viewed with Expo Go. Due to React Native not having API routes, a separate project has to be created for the back-end. I used a next.js app for the API routes and postgres as a database. It can be found in my repos under: https://github.com/stevelaschan/upleveled-final-project-backend The deployed version can be found under: https://friendify-backend.herokuapp.com/
