Team StayFIT at HackPrague2020 hackathon would love to introduce you its lovely HackPrague2020 hackathon child - EduVest. EduVest is a mobile platform that helps people to become more financially literate, small businesses to recover in the reality of economic crises and banks to become more popular and loved by the clients.
The main idea of our project is to create an educational platform for all online-banking users. This app will help people not only to learn how to manage their finances efficiently, but also see the improving using the Statistics from their personal online banking account. We decided to use discount promotions for small businesses products as a motivation to study and develop financial freedom.
The user authorizes with their phone number and chooses the main financial goal. After that he has an access for courses. After completing each course the user has to take a test and if all answers are correct, he will get a promocode.
All discounts are listed in a personal profile. There are another two sections in personal profile: Goals and My courses. In Goals all financial tasks (e.g. Spend less than 100$ next week) are shown. Another way to get a discount for small businesses products is to complete all tasks.
This way a person broadens their mind and improves their financial status. The progress is visible in the Statistics section, which was made with the help of the personal online banking data.
To successfully install and run EduVest you would need to:
- clone this repository to your local machine;
- install the requirements for the backend server and run it;
- install Expo app on your mobile device;
- install the requirements for the frontend client and run it.
Let's install and run the application step-by-step.
You can simply accomplish this by typing
git clone https://github.com/salveron/StayFIT_HackPrague2020.git <project_directory>,
where <project_directory> is your desired name to clone the repository into.
Then you can cd into this new directory.
The project's backend is written in Python with the usage of Flask web framework and an SQLite database. To install these, make sure that you have Python3.6 or higher and pip installed on your machine. It is also recommended to create a new virtual environment for the project, so make sure to execute these:
cd backend
python3 -m venv venv
source ./venv/bin/activate
After the virtual environment was created, you can install requirements for the backend part:
(venv) pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Finally, to run the server, execute this:
(venv) python3 main.py
If everything is correct, the backend Flask server should run on ip address
0.0.0.0 and be accessible from the port 5000.
To install Expo on Android, go to Google Play Store and find it there. Then tap install and wait.
Make sure that you have npm installed on your machine.
Node.js
Go to frontend folder, then install Expo CLI:
sudo npm install --unsave-perm -g expo-cli
Then install all packages:
npm install
npm start
Using android expo app scan QR and application will build.
