Organisation And Project

Project Description:

This summer, we worked on FOSSASIA's Open Event Attendee Android Project. Our goal was to match missing functionalities in our API and implement payment gateways to help ordering tickets, which we have successfully accomplished. The app can be found in the Play Store or F-Droid with the name Eventyay Attendee.

With Eventyay Attendee, users can search for events around the world with detailed information and buy the tickets for those events. The app can also be used for checking in with QR code and saving favorite events.

Eventyay Attendee App provide features for users:

  • Searching/Filtering/Sorting for events based on event name, location, event type, date.
  • Create an account in Eventyay system to manage tickets and user information.
  • Registering for free tickets, buying for paid tickets with Paypal or credit card.
  • Donating for the organizer with donation tickets.
  • Viewing registered tickets for an event and downloading tickets/invoice in PDF format.
  • Checking-in easily with QR Code.
  • Adding favorite events in Favorite Section.
  • Sending speaker profile and proposal for an event containing Speakers Call.
  • Writing a feedback or reporting an event.
  • Looking for similar events.

The codebase of Open Event Android is written in Kotlin and it is following the MVVM architecture. We are using Retrofit Library for making network request, RxJava for asynchornous call and room for local caching.
