Login screen: email and password fields. Users enter their login and password to access the app. Forgot password option available via email recovery.
Registration screens:
The registration screen allows the user to create an account by selecting their user type and filling in required fields such as full name, email, phone number, and password.
Find cargo
Developed a search with convenient filters. Senders look for suitable wagons, while carriers look for cargo. The algorithm finds options based on the necessary parameters such as cargo type, departure and arrival dates, and location. Wagons and cargo can also be searched on a map.
Creating proposals
Added forms for submitting offers and requests. If a user is interested in the found option, they can respond by writing a message. In the correspondence, the parties agree on the cost of transportation.
List of proposals
Implemented automatic creation of contracts and invoices for payment. They are filled with data from the request and credentials. System calculates the cost taking into account the commission. Parties agree to the terms, download documents, sign contract, and upload it back to the service. Counterparties see the process stage in real-time.
Configured servers that handle a large flow of requests, maintain the continuous operation of the application, and protect data from loss and leaks.
