Abstract

The FireFly company was created on the idea of blind dating. Most dating apps need the user to have an extensive conversation through a chat box before settling for a date. The product of FireFly tries to remedy that by having the first conversation be face to face. Over ten weeks, we have built the FireFly Dating application. We started researching other dating applications and matching algorithms to decide the requirements for FireFly Dating. After this, we implemented these requirements from scratch. In the final product, users can register an account, like or dislike other users profiles to indicate preferences for the matching algorithm, enroll for a blind date, and get matched. The application also includes an automated emailing system and a full reporting and feedback system. Furthermore, the system allows for an Administrator to get an overview of the application’s data. The Administrator can insert, edit or archive Dating Establishments and Time Slots. As well as view user reports and ban users if necessary. The final application is a product that portrays the Product Owner’s vision in that dating should be easily accessible and offline. At the end of the project, together with the Product Owner, it can be concluded that the FireFly Dating application was successful.
