The Prototype

Requirements

• A first draft on the layout/desgin of the app
  • Screen shots will be added shortly
• Basic user setup step (getting the required user information)
  • Age/date of birth (input)
  • Gender (input)
  • BMI (calculated field)
  • Height (input)
  • More fields will be added to the beta-version of the app for user-testing
• Login with social media (Single-sign-on, OAuth2 and social logins)
  • Google
  • Facebook
  • Single sign-on
• Connecting the app to climate information
  • Deutsche Wetterdienst Open Data
  • Open Weather Map
• User-specific model calculations based on user input

To start out, the app will be developed in Java. As we get to the final version, the app should be available for both Android and iOS devices. In order to make it easy to work with both platforms, the recommended Kotlin, will be used as the bridge for conversion between Android and iOS.
