The system will be built using the client-server pattern.

Client

We have chosen to create an iOS-app with the new Swift programming language.

Server

The server will be coded with Node.js.

These languages are new to us so it will be interesting to see how the project pans out. As of now, we are feeling confident that we will be able to create the application in the given time.

P.S. We would like to mention some of the modules we will be using for the server side.

Web framework: Express

Testing: Mocha, Chai, Supertest

Image API: Flickr

Activity API: Yelp (new api: Foursquare)
