950 is a mobile app for documenting incidents of violence and injustice in the United States. Anyone can file a report from their phone; reports show up on a shared map in real time so other users can see what’s happening around them. I built it end to end in 2021. It’s no longer maintained.
What it does
- File an incident report, optionally anonymously
- See incidents on an interactive map
- Community verification of reports
- Works offline and syncs when back online
How it’s built
- React Native
- Node.js backend with Socket.io for live updates
- MongoDB
- Google Maps API
