📍 Torio (PlaceFinder)
Torio is a one-day trip planning application that automatically generates a personalized travel itinerary for users based on location, preferences, radius, date, and available travel time.
Instead of manually researching attractions, weather data, and directions, the app retrieves real locations using an external API, optionally incorporates weather conditions when available, and then builds a complete day trip plan including recommendations, routing, and timing.
Users can create an account, verify email ownership, log in securely, generate day-trip plans, view previous plans, and save or delete itineraries for future use.
Core Features:
-
User registration + login system
-
Email verification via SMTP security code
-
Search places based on user input and preferences
-
Weather-aware suggestion engine (when data available)
-
Generate structured travel itinerary automatically
-
Save generated plans to user account
-
View, list, and delete plans
-
Route ordering + navigation logic for efficient travel
APIs Used:
- Open-Meteo: Check Weather Condition with latitude and longtitude as an input.
- Geoapify Places: Find places with specific categories within a certain radius.
- Open Cage API: Returns a latitude and longtitude of an address (street number or even city).
- Google Maps API: We use the routes API from the Google Maps API. It returns the directions for the plan.
