SEWA Connect

Inspiration

Inspired by SEWA's mission

What it does

It is an app for people to request help, become a SEWA volunteer, and SEWA admins to manage requests.

How I built it

Using Firebase as the backend, and support both Android and iOS as native apps

Our main goal was to create a platform where SEWA's volunteers can easily connect. We chose firebase as the backend integration because we understand that NPO's such as sewa do not have the funds to hire a developer to create/manage the platform. By choosing firebase even people with extremely limited coding experience can use it.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Developing two production ready applications on BOTH Android and iOS. We are extremely happy of what we built and learned over this weekend.

What I learned

Our group uses mostly amazon webservices so we learned the firebase sdk and integrated it into our apps.

What's next for SEWA Connect

If the SEWA organization likes our platform we would most definitely teach them how we integrated firebase and teach them how to manage the application.
