What's this about?

Budapest already tried to accomplish creating a system like MetroCard or Oyster several times with projects like Electra or RIGO, but they failed every time. The main goal of this project is to create an open-source e-ticket system that's suitable for cities.

Are you serious?

Yes, totally. Also, it's our school project, so we are definietly going to work on this consistently so that we don't get a bad grade.

Main goals

• Phase 1 Develop a QR-code based e-ticket and pass system (feature set like BKK Online Shop) Execution details
• Phase 2 Add support for NFC inspecting with phone and cards (feature set like BKK Rigo) Execution details
  • Possibly build a demo with an NFC card
• Phase 3 Add support for prepaid-type accounts (like MTA (NYC) MetroCard) Execution details
• Phase 4 Get a city to use this system Implementation plan for cities
  • We'll probably need support for the Hungarian e-ID card system (via NFC) so that we match with the government's main goals
• Phase 5 Add advanced data analysis and reporting tools to the admin panel

While developing, try to keep an eye on

• Writing readable, reusable, clean, efficient and modern code
• Consistent, camelCased naming
• Avoiding code or feature duplication
• Avoiding dependency hell, use as few dependencies as possible
• Security, because it's a must: we are trying to get a real city to use this system, thus we need to try to live up to some privacy and security standards.
