The Sup?NYC project developed an Android app and web app to allow users to discover and customize events in New York City. Key features included registering and fetching events by category, swiping to like or dislike events, event localization on maps, and recommended events based on user likes. Future work includes tracking planned attendance, more personalized event feeds, and filters. The apps were created using Java and Android SDK with an AWS backend and DynamoDB, S3 and Github.
