What is Penny?
Penny is a travel planner that is integrated with Facebook API through Oauth login functionality, Google Maps API for places and cities, and Open Weather API for receiving the current weather.
I chose these features because I wanted to keep the web app fast and simple while allowing for the user to do as much travel planning as they wanted to do. Having a lean web application with the possibility for more features later on was the way to go!
Here is a step by step overview of the user flow for the app:
- Arrive at the homepage and sign in with Facebook via auth0
- Login successful, reach the travel pplanner dashboard
- Create trips based on different cities
- Add places to the trips
- If the user changes their mind, they can delete the places and/or trips
- Eat. Sleep. Repeat!
