Hey everyone! We have a struggling economy here in South Africa, so working on an interesting way to help consumers save money by onboarding product pricing and helping people track their savings while still choosing their preferred brands from stores nearby that are cheaper. I'm using this as a project to learn Swift and SwiftUI for iOS, then I'll get my team to rebuild in Flutter if the prototype yields interest. The idea is to focus on a small community, and give back to that community. The working name is Savery. :) If this is successful, it could be launched in other places, in which case we'll likely open-source the code and have communities manage their own systems. My context is that I an a founder in a solutions company in South Africa, and I am learning to build things as a hobby to be able to best relate and discuss technical things with my software engineers.
