About the project
After the February 2023 earthquakes, most of Hatay’s local businesses moved into temporary container markets, and finding shops and services became a daily struggle. Hatayı Yaşat is an open-source community app, built by volunteers, that makes these businesses visible again. Owners register their business in the app with photos, opening hours and location; once approved, the listing reaches everyone in real time through Firestore. The app also covers container markets, category and district filters, photo reviews, a community feed and an archive that keeps the city’s memory. I contributed to developing the mobile app as part of the volunteer team. The project was a finalist at the Sabancı Hatay Incubation Center and is featured on Flutter’s official Showcase.
