I made this app to solve a problem that my girlfriend and I had before the summer of 2019. We thought that it would be cool to have a simple app to find where to go in Barcelona during a sunny day, and then we started adding more categories.
At the moment I’m rebuilding this app, I had an idea to develop this simple concept, adding a new business model around it.
How is made it?
- JavaScript
- Firebase
- Google Maps
- Google Analytics
Why I built it?
I also built this app to test my skills, at that time I had practically zero experience on how to plan and structure a new project.
In short:
- I'm really intrigued by new challenges.
- I was totally motivated to solve a common problem for my girlfriend and I and use something made by myself.
- I was intrigued by the idea of building my first business.
With my actual knowladge I can criticize the structure of the code base. I could improve the use of JavaScript and the data management, utilizing a service like MongoDb atlas or Firebase Firestore.
What I've learned?
- How to use vanilla JavaScript.
- How to deal with external libraries and customize it for the project needs.
- How to solve problems about coding implementation and interaction between different services.
