Comet Events!

What does our app do?

Comet Events is a crowd-source app that allows UTD students to post events such as club/organization meetings, social events, free food around campus and so on. Our main goal with the app was a improvise on the UTD's Comet Calendar, that provides students with a list of, sometimes, outdated events in a hard-to-navigate list view. Our app makes this process much more fluid for the students by giving them a map view and allows them to contribute by letting them post events that they think are worth sharing.

Project features

1. Google Maps API that uses location markers to display events and their description in small pop-ups.

2. An 'Add event' option through which the user can create an event, social, educational, etc. and make it available for all other users.

3. A calendar view that helps the user keep track of every event for which they marked themselves interested, and find many similar events.

4. This application also helps find all the nearby events happening at a certain date or time.
