concerts app was one of the earlier times i tried to think in terms of a mobile product instead of a website. the idea was simple: keep concerts in one place, store ticket data locally, and attach photos and memories once the event was over.
what was in it
- react native with expo
- local sqlite storage for events
- barcode scanning for ticket flow
- image picking for memories
- event detail screens with past and future states
the interesting part was the shape of it. not just rendering cards, but thinking through what the app should do before, during, and after an event. upcoming concert, stored ticket, scanned code, then a place to keep the photos and small leftovers afterwards.
why it still belongs here
because it shows the same pattern i still like now: take a messy real-life flow, simplify it, and turn it into a tool that feels a bit more usable than the default chaos.
