LivingGreen Web Application

Project Description:

This web application was built for our client, Myles Jones, President of the non-profit association Living With Trees located in the National Capital Region. We received a request from him to build a web application that will allow the users to log in and track the amount of residual materials they throw away over time. The client’s company (LivingWithTrees) takes care of customers’ curbside trash: Recycling, Compost, and Landfill waste. They are trying to spread awareness and encourage people to do better waste-sorting practices. We found that our client’s company doesn’t have any tool that they can use to display the waste data collected to their customer base so he requested us to build a web application that will fulfill his company’s needs.

Our team provided the client with an online portal where his customers can easily log in and check the amount of garbage they throw away every week. Before this project, the client was storing the data in the localized database but with the help of our web application and database integration, the client can now store data in a service-based real-time database. Furthermore, our application provided the user with the opportunity to choose between English and French language and displayed the data accordingly. Last but not least, this web application has a Level A accessibility feature (Text to Speech) to enhance user experience and improve user’s site usability.

While building this application, we learned how to communicate effectively with a client and how to work in a team environment.
