Software Development Plan

Team Name: Proof of Concept Mobile Application Project: FlashyMind Platform: React Native with Expo Timeline: 5 Weeks Team Members: Ahmet (Backend), Joshua (Frontend), Anastasia (UI/UX)

📌 Project Overview

This project aims to develop a proof-of-concept mobile application using React Native and Expo. The goal is to demonstrate core functionality, technical feasibility, and a user-friendly experience for flashcard-based learning.

FlashyMind enables users to study any topic through custom-created flashcards or curated pre-made decks. It includes features like Study Mode and an optional Quiz Mode to support multiple learning strategies. Supabase is used for authentication and backend storage.

🎯 Objectives

  • Develop a mobile app with core flashcard-based learning features

  • Implement intuitive navigation and a clean UI

  • Include at least:

    • 4 Screens
    • 2 Forms with validation
    • Remote data storage
    • Real-time data fetching and updates

  • Validate app viability through testing and user feedback

  • Demonstrate technical understanding of mobile dev principles, project management, and collaboration
