Project Area of Specialization Software EngineeringProject Summary

Our research is based on automating the business by using the new technologies expelling the exiting manual system and providing more features through our system. There are many websites that sells plants online in Pakistan but there is no mobile application or buying plants online. Our project Blooming Garden is a buying selling app for plants   as the plant lovers could easily find the best plants and order them from the application instantly as our application provides the service to customer at doorsteps   the database is also maintained for the user details as the user has the access to manage his or her with all the pavement and order details Our project is mainly related to the plant nursery. A nursery is a place where plants are grown commercially, either for sale direct to the public or to other retailers. We are developing an e-commerce mobile application for a nursery which will book customer’s order and deliver their package to their doorstep. The project mainly focused on the user needs for the natural creations’ plants. The primary goal of this project is that user can easily search and order his or her plant from this application. Currently, we don’t have any app which looks after only plants. Other than this if we talk in terms of OS, then this application is hybrid which means it can run on both IOS and Android.

Project Implementation Method

Literature survey shows that among various software process models, Agile model is best suitable for mobile applications because it follows a combination of iterative and incremental approach which helps the project to adapt to changes rapidly.

approach and implement RAD (Rapid process model while developing our project. As it increases flexibility with a fast failure mindset, improves team collaboration, it also helps in greater knowledge building, and it also more transparent and effective in handling bugs and changes

According to our study and research, we will be following this

RAD Model or Rapid Application Development model is a software development process based on prototyping without any specific planning. In RAD model, there is less attention paid to the planning and more priority is given to the development tasks. It targets at developing software in a short span of time.

Technologies to be used

Front-End:

Flutter is being used as framework which includes “dart” language. We will implement the front-end on android studio.

Model Building:

Python Programming. (Colab)

Back-End:
