Abstract:
"The ""DormDash"" project aims to address the critical accommodation challenges faced by university students and freshers in Sri Lanka, who struggle with finding suitable, affordable accommodation close to their educational institutions. This problem is escalated by a combination of geographical limitations, financial limitations, and inadequate access to relevant accommodation information. The proposed centralized accommodation application, ""DormDash,"" seeks to mitigate these issues by providing a user-friendly, integrated solution that centralizes accommodation options, aligns them with student needs, and enables easier decision-making.
""DormDash"" will feature a comprehensive database of available accommodations, including key details on proximity to universities, cost, amenities, and transportation options. By leveraging advanced filtering and search resources, the platform will enable students to efficiently find housing options that best match their preferences and budgets. Furthermore, the platform will offer comparing accommodations option and displaying promotions and discounts offered by rental providers.
This project is supported by a robust methodology that includes stakeholder interviews, surveys, and a detailed review of existing accommodation platforms, identifying their limitations and opportunities for improvement. ""DormDash"" is designed to not only improve the accommodation search process but also enhance the overall well-being and academic performance of students by significantly reducing the stress associated with accommodation searches. The platform aims to be a vital resource for students, providing reliable, up-to-date information that addresses the core challenges identified through comprehensive research.
The proposed fully fledges solution has been developed using cutting edge technologies. An evaluation of the developed solution has been taken at the end of the project to make sure the developed DormDash solutions effectiveness.
