Flaws in Phase 1
- Only basic sign-up/login option which used to break multiple times.
- One was able to create Rides as well as Routes which would create a lot of data redundancy and multiple rides and routes even for the same source to destination travel ultimately causing more confusion to users.
- No scope of deleting or cancelling a ride or route.
- No scope for the user to track his/her rides creating problems for the user track his/her rides and routes and plan accordingly.
- Application was running only on local servers. Not deployed so very less usability scope as well as very less server support.
Enhancement and Improvements in Phase 2:
- Restructed the database and object structure to improve efficiency and avoid data redundancy.
- Users can create or join routes which would create or map the rides automatically based on the source and destination avoiding duplicate data and data redundancy.
- Added User based Rides Page which would help the user to track his rides and work on it accordingly.
- Added Google SSO Sign in functionality to add options to signing up which also covers security loopholes.
- Added delete/cancel ride functionality so that if the user has cancelled his plan of going to a particular destination, he/she can cancel/delete the ride so that others are not dependent on the same creating efficient and easy usability for the users.
- Deployed and Hosted the application on AWS making the application more stable, globally acccessible and not dependent on any local machine.
