Projects
Kopilot
Kopilot is an innovative truck routing application designed to streamline the operations of delivery companies.
RoomFragmentsHiltNavigationRetrofitMVVMCoilKotlin
As the sole mobile developer for this project, I have successfully completed the Android version of the app and am currently finalizing the iOS version. The core functionality of Kopilot centers around intelligent route planning based on the specifications of the trucks and daily updated fuel prices, allowing transporters to consistently run profitable routes. Once on the road, drivers use Kopilot as a GPS navigation system. The app provides map localization and routing instructions in accordance with the planned route. It also offers route recommendations based on the type of vehicle, the specifics of the transport, and the countries being transited. Special maps for trucks and ADR routes are also available, providing drivers with the safest and most effective routes.
