Purdue TripTimer is a Hello World 2020 project by @aaryan-gautam, @afshirazi, @chrisx8, and @HenryWellman.
Server-side implementation is at chrisx8/purduetriptimer-server.
We never knew how long it would take to get from one building to another and we don't want anyone to have that problem in the future.
Lets the user choose from some of the most popular locations on campus, choose a travel method, see an estimated time for their trip, and upload their own trip time information.
We built a mobile app using the Android SDK in Android Studio.
Weird bugs throughout, getting the findFavorites()
method to work, getting the timer to pause and reset, server-side database errors.
We built an android app that actually runs properly with no previous relevant android experience.
