A marketplace app for people to book for hourly working and studying sessions.

Type

Le Wagon Project

Project Purpose and Goal

This web app plans to cater to employees or freelancers looking for a place to work or conduct meetings. Being a marketplace app, restaurant owners or library managers will be able to list their locations for booking at their dedicated available timings. Information such as Wi-Fi and shortest route to the location will be available upon confirmed bookings.

Web Stack and Explanation

This was the first group project in Le Wagon.

The app was straightforward, using Mapbox and its functionality to provide a visual aid for the users to locate nearby listings around them. Simple Form was also used for the forms for code readability.

Problems and Thought Process

This was a straightforward web app but there were a lot of learnings with regards to the UI/UX. As this was our very first web app, a lot of the forms were generated from the data type required and can be a bit messy for the user. For example, the 'Time' field will render the hour, minute and seconds which is detrimental to the user experience. Through this, we have learnt about simplifying forms for the user and converting their input into data that our models will understand.
