About Client
The Rodzic w Mieście Foundation reached out to us through Tech To The Rescue. The Foundation focuses on "urban parenting", representing parents in daily life and creating a better everyday experience for them. RWM identified an issue with busy, hurried parents driving their children to school, even for very short distances. This behavior contributed to traffic congestion, exhaust pollution, and reduced physical activity for children, one-third of whom are already overweight. This led to the idea of a platform where parents can connect and support each other in walking their children to school.
Idziemy! is…
a platform that allows parents to stay connected within the schools their children attend. They have access to a forum, a map of nearby schools, and a tool for planning walks.
Clients Problem
Many parents opted to drive their children to school even over short distances, leading to increased traffic around school areas, causing congestion and higher accident risks. Our team developed a platform that encourages parents to walk their children to school, reducing the need for short car trips. By connecting parents within the app, we enabled easy coordination for shared walks, which directly addresses the issue of traffic congestion near schools. Through the route planning and walk scheduling features, the platform encourages daily physical activity for children. By facilitating and normalizing walking as the primary means of getting to school, Idziemy! makes it easier for parents to choose this healthier option.
Challenges for 2N
- implementation of walking route mapping with the ability to add stops
- lack of designs for many pages
- development of a calendar feature that allows adding and editing events
- automatic forum refresh, where new comments appear without reloading the page
What we did
Integration with OpenRouteService
The application integrates with OpenRouteService to provide efficient route planning and navigation capabilities. This integration allows users to access detailed walking directions directly within the app.
RWD
We made sure the app was responsive and looked good on computers and mobiles, despite many different screen sizes and resolutions and some additional problems, mostly on Apple devices and in Firefox browser.
Development alongside design
Due to the lack of designs for several views, the development team had to create certain screens based on the style and structure of the available layouts made by Mohi.to. Working closely with the existing designs, they adapted and extended the UI to cover pages without specific mockups, ensuring a cohesive user experience throughout the application.
Outcome
The project resulted in an intuitive and cohesive application that offers parents a new way to organize school walks while enhancing their comfort and sense of community. A functional administrative system, thoughtful design, and social features contribute to building an integrated parenting network. The Idziemy! app is now ready for use, promoting healthy habits among families. With robust technology and an easy-to-navigate platform, users gain more influence over their children’s daily routines. Idziemy! supports more conscious, healthy, and eco-friendly choices for families.
What we accomplished:
- Admin system to manage all necessary data.
- Managing the map and calendar to create walking routes.
- Clear, minimalist design.
- Ability for users to contact each other.
- Quality assurance and testing.
