I built wkndr.app as a mobile-first web app designed for partners to sync their weekend plans in real time.
Key Features
TikTok-Style Discovery: This is a vertical feed of upcoming Melbourne events.
AI-Generated Visuals: Since many local events lack high-quality media, I used the Gemini model to generate lifestyle images that represent the atmosphere of the event.
Logistics First: You can add birthday invites as images and track estimated costs directly within the plan.
Deep Research: I leveraged AI agents to scrape and curate events specifically for the Melbourne area.
The Tech Stack
Frontend: Vite and React optimized for a mobile web experience.
Backend: AWS Serverless including Lambda and DynamoDB for scale and low overhead.
AI: Gemini for image generation and event data synthesis.
Roadmap
Multi-child support: I am adding color-coded flares to track which child needs to be at which activity.
School Calendar Integration: This will include automated syncing for Melbourne’s complex private and public school terms.
Public Holiday Optimization: I am building a feature to help families maximize long weekends by identifying the best days to take leave.
I would love for some feedback so I can add events for other cities in future
