A group of four students teamed up at the MITA Innovation Hub to build the app. The team used different technologies and managed the entire project from A to Z under guidance of the mentors. Eventually they produced a sleekly designed mobile app to support the business of the NGOs managing the park.Other creatorsSee project -
