Hermes is a mobile application that is built with Flutter for the UI/UX and Firebase for the database and user management. It allows university students to create requests for resources and living needs, such as food, water, books, and electronics. After requests are posted, donors can view those requests and initiate a chat with the student he or she wants to donate to. Through the chat, the student and donor will be able to decide how to complete the donation, in ways such as shipping, delivery, or meeting at a safe location (university or other public area preferred).
