Abstract:
Burgfeed is an Citizen Journalism android platform mobile application. This
application will helps us to send social problems which are happening around us to
the respected authorities so that they can acknowledge the problem and take necessary
steps for it. We use Firebase for storing our data as it is very fast and reliable and easy
to use. This is an user based application where user can create account using his/her
phone number. Their personal information won’t show up to anyone. We use Firebase
Realtime Database to store and load our user information, and post as well. They can
post their complain with proof like images and can send email to appropriate
authorities. All user can see the all category posts. We use Firebase Storage for
storing users post images. We implemented different methods, used different libraries
to make this application as easy as possible. User can comment on every posts. For
posting a complain our application gets the incident location, auto gets the time and
date, automatically fill the authorities email to reduce the time of posting. We uses
JSouplibrary and using html parsing to retrieve the email from authorities website so
that we can ensure the email is always up to date. User can see his/her own posts,
profile and can delete post as well. We want to make an platform where user can post
all social problems that are happening around us, discuss each other. And authorities
can know what is happening around us and take immediate steps.
