Saved favourites can then be used to build a complete travel itinerary, all in one place. The app focuses on giving users full control and flexibility over their travel plans, allowing them to organise trips by upcoming or past travels, and remove any trips they no longer need. NC Travel is the smart, simple way to plan and manage efficient journeys.

Tech Stack

Tech Stack for this group

We used React Native, Expo, Firebase authentication/ Firestore, Typescript, Axios, Jest/ Supertest, Amadeus API, AI using python and google’s Gemini They serve the functionalities the app requires, and we didn’t cover them on the course; learning and using these technologies was a challenge, and we wanted to be ambitious with this project. They are also up-to-date, with React-native being used in many mobile applications from a plethora of companies.

Challenges Faced

Planning and executing a large scale project for the first time came with several issues to overcome. Spiking these technologies was a huge learning curve, particularly Firebase. The test API also caused a few issues, with connectivity not being consistent and unknown errors occurring. We also had issues merging multiple branches together, as we had merge conflicts several times.
