Event Management Frontend

The Event Management Frontend is a native Android application developed in Kotlin. This app provides a comprehensive calendar-based event management system designed for seamless user interaction.

This project was created as the final assignment for AP7PD and AP7MP subjects.

It integrates with a custom backend REST API to manage users, events, attendees, and categories effectively.

Overview / Key Features

• Monthly Calendar View: View events in a grid layout by weeks and days.
• Daily View: Easily browse and manage daily events.
• Event Management: Create, edit, and delete events with support for categories and attendees.
• User Authentication: Register and log in with robust access and refresh token support, ensuring secure and seamless user sessions.
• Error Handling: Gracefully handles API errors, including scenarios where the backend is unreachable.

Backend requirements

The application requires a running backend API for full functionality. The backend is implemented using FastAPI in Python.

You can find the source code and detailed deployment instructions for the backend API at: Event Management Backend Repository.

Tip

The app supports dynamic configuration of the API base URL, allowing you to deploy the backend on any server or cloud provider of your choice. If you wish to test the app from android studio, you can deploy the backend locally (http://localhost:8000) and set the base URL to http://10.0.2.2:8000. This will allow the Android emulator to access the local backend server. Note that this is also the default value.
