Tiivistelmä
The aim of this thesis was to build an E-commerce android application and document step by step guidelines and findings which would provide insight into an android application development. It helps developers to know the basic requirements and knowledge for developing an android application.
Smartphones are the most widely used consumer electronic devices. Internet connection has made it much simpler for people to browse anything through handheld mobile devices. In addition, people buy services and make payments to each using smartphones. Keeping these things on mind, an android application, ‘Ours’, was developed to connect businesses and customers for easy buying and selling of goods and services. Also, realizing the impact of online advertisements Ours’ application has been integrated with advertisements for uplifting sales of business and giving users the ability to get discount coupons in the application instead of filling up space in email. Ours application also has integrated google map API.
Businesses using this application will have features where they can add employees (sellers, delivery person), create and manage shelf products, share free coupons among customers and allow them to share it among friends. Also, communication between customers and sellers has been made easy by adding messaging service which helps them connect between each other. Ours’ application can also act as a social media application inside a e-commerce application since it has all the features of a social media app (sharing stories, messaging and connecting between friends)
Ours’ application was developed using Android Studio and Java programming language. Firebase was used for storing and retrieving data since it is a real time database. It has built in QR code features from Zxing which helps to keep track on the orders and business’s sales. Google Maps from Google has added more features within this application. The purpose of the author is to implement his study and findings to build a fully functioning e-commerce android application. Through the Author’s findings, any developer can build a simple and fully working android application.
