My travel-planning concept

FlyWise

FlyWise was the travel-planning concept I worked on to bring itineraries, voice input, image-assisted place discovery, language options, and translation-oriented ideas into one interface.

01

Problem

I wanted to reduce the constant switching between search, translation, recognition, and itinerary tools while planning a trip.

02

Constraints

  • I needed several input modes to feel like parts of one user journey
  • I treated account and preference data as private
  • I could not assume that third-party recognition or translation behavior worked without testing it
  • I kept unverified assistance features framed as intended flows rather than completed capabilities

03

Technical decisions

  • My surviving project notes list React and Vite for the client; I no longer have the source to re-check that implementation
  • My surviving notes also list Node.js and Express for the service layer
  • They also list Firebase for data and identity, which I have not re-verified
  • I designed account access as the entry point for the personalized planning concept

04

Evidence

  • I verified that the public demo still reaches a complete login screen without entering credentials
  • I kept the original interface screens that show the intended trip-planning flow
  • I no longer have the source needed to verify itinerary generation, recognition, translation, or personalization end to end

05

What I learned

FlyWise taught me to prove one complete planning path before presenting a wide set of intelligent features as a finished experience.
