Welcome to the source code of the Anvadhi Flutter application! This repository contains the code for an innovative app aimed at preserving old art forms and contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by providing recognition to individuals involved in these art forms and helping them spread their art.

App Flow and Features

Anvadhi, an android application built with Flutter, is designed to offer a seamless user experience while preserving old art forms, supporting artisans, and fostering cultural exchange. The app incorporates various features, like eye-catchy animations, Geocoding API, and the Flutter Maps API, to achieve its goals.

Authentication

The app starts with a user-friendly authentication system. Users can create accounts securely or log in using existing credentials. This authentication mechanism ensures a personalized experience for every user.

Art Upload

One of the core features of Anvadhi is the ability for users to contribute to the platform by uploading images or videos showcasing old and valuable art forms. This easy-to-use feature empowers users to become contributors and share their passion for preserving artistry.

Art Discovery

The app provides a rich browsing experience through its "Art Discovery" feature. Users can explore a diverse array of art forms uploaded by various individuals. This feature not only serves as a source of inspiration but also facilitates the discovery of lesser-known art forms and their creators or uploaders.

Interactive Map

The app provides the user a very interactive map where they can select one or more artworks a place is famously known for. The user can also select the artworks restricting the search in a specific timeline. The place the user selects is highlighted with a red marker.

Bookmarking Art

Users can now bookmark their favorite art pieces to easily revisit and appreciate them later. This feature enhances user engagement and helps them curate their personal collection of beloved art forms.

Upcoming Features

The Anvadhi team is actively working on enhancing the app's functionality. In the near future, users can expect the following features:

• Likes: Users will be able to express their appreciation by liking art pieces that resonate with them and find current trending artforms, including a report for forum moderation.

• Themes: An array of themes and categories will be introduced, making it even easier for users to explore specific art forms they are interested in.

• Donations: The app will facilitate direct donations to artisans, allowing users to provide financial support to their favorite creators.

• Comments: Users will be able to leave comments on art pieces, fostering a sense of interaction and community engagement.

• Courses: People can share their artforms and let other people learn them as a course generating some income for them as well.

Alignment with SDGs

The Anvadhi app contributes to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by promoting and supporting cultural heritage. By providing recognition, and exposure to old art forms (thereby generating some sort of advertisement to sell their arts), the app aligns with the goals of empowerment and sustainable development.
