Abstract
Appearance has become a vital part of every person’s life, But, life is becoming more complicated with the daily routine work especially for working professionals and students. They do not have spare time to wash their dirty clothes and even do not have enough time to visita laundry shop. This culture has led way to lots of laundry shops that provide service to the people in need. Hence, laundry services have become an integral part of the service industry nowadays. These laundry services can be made accessible to the public with the help of a user-friendly application. Launapp is a great and innovative application that solves the purpose of the people by providing an interface between the service provider and the customer. The full cycle approach of laundry businesses lets clients book and pay for their clothes to be picked up and delivered back clean by tapping several buttons on a smartphone.A mobile application can be built on several platforms, such as Android, and iOS. Android uses Java and iOS uses Swift. But, to create an application for both iOS and Android at the same time can be done using Flutter withsingle codebase. One codebase to maintain, one place to debug, one place to update and one place to rule them all. This is a huge advantage compared to creating apps natively having different places to update and maintain. Flutter requires to know only one language which is Dart.
