In-Person Social Connection App (MVP Development w/ 2-Week Timeline)
Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD
## Project Overview
I'm developing a social app that facilitates in-person connections through events and compatibility matching. The core functionality revolves around SMS-based communication and a streamlined event management system.
## Urgent 2-Week Delivery
I need a functional MVP developed within **2 weeks maximum**. This expedited timeline requires focus on only the essential features needed to launch quickly:
1. **Event Management System (HIGHEST PRIORITY)**
- Basic event creation with minimal parameters (location, time, capacity)
- Simple admin dashboard for event oversight
- SMS notification capability for event announcements
- Basic payment processing for event fees
- Minimal RSVP functionality
2. **Essential User Onboarding**
- Streamlined registration with basic profile creation
- Simple personality assessment (3-5 questions only)
- Phone number verification for SMS communication
- Basic waitlist functionality
3. **Text Messaging Integration**
- Integration with SMS gateway (Twilio preferred)
- Core automated text workflows
- Basic response handling
## Technical Requirements
- Cross-platform development (iOS and Android) using the fastest implementation method
- Functional but minimal UI focusing only on critical user journeys
- SMS gateway integration
- Basic security and data handling
- Simple payment processing integration
## Important Notes
- Aesthetics and advanced features are secondary to functional completion
- We can use template/boilerplate code where appropriate to accelerate development
- Daily progress updates required given the compressed timeline
- This is phase one of a larger project - **future development opportunities will be available** for the right developer after successful completion of this MVP
## Timeline
- Development must be completed within 2 weeks
The successful completion of this MVP will be the foundation for a more robust application in subsequent development phases.
