This app is designed to streamline the process of organizing and providing rides within a Beta Theta Pi at Virginia Tech (it is still under construction, but we plan to release by the start of next semester). Whether you're a pledge offering rides or a fellow fraternity member in need of transportation, this app makes the process easier and more convenient. Built using Swift and SwiftUI, it focuses on elegance and ease-of-use. Features
User Authentication: We use Firebase to securely store and authenticate users. Mobile users are verified using OTP sent through SMS, ensuring a safe and reliable experience.
Pledge Rides: Pledges can offer rides to other fraternity members with just a few taps. It simplifies what used to be a complicated process, making it more efficient for everyone.
Request Rides: Fraternity members in need of transportation can easily request rides within the app. Soon, with the upcoming feature, you'll be able to see where the pledges are using Google's geolocation API, ensuring you know when your ride is on its way.
Virginia Tech Exclusive: This app is tailored specifically for a Virginia Tech organization and is meant to be used 1-3 times per week, aligning perfectly with the needs of the fraternity.
