HelpApp is our effort towards creating an application which people can use to communicate when there is no internet. This application is created for disaster struck areas where communication can play a vital role in saving human lives but it can also be used in various scenarios. It is a android chatting app which creates a mesh network of mobiles. Mobiles can interact with each other without connecting to the internet. Help was created using Kotlin as its base language with a little Java for the database code.

And also our final year project for BE in CS&E under VTU, Belagavi

This is a standard Android Studio project. To build this project, clone the project in your local machine and open it with Android Studio as an Android project. And it should build the project (you need to have the right android SDKs). Try invalidating caches and restart if you run into problems on your first build.

If you want to create your own flavour of Help you are free to do so our app is released under GPL license v3.0.
