DESENVOLVIMENTO DO SOFTWARE “STICKERZ”: UM APLICATIVO PARA TROCA DE FIGURINHAS DA COPA DO MUNDO

Abstract

This work presents the development of the "Stickerz" mobile application, a technological solution to facilitate World Cup sticker trading among collectors. The project utilizes modern technologies such as Kotlin for Android development and Spring Boot for the backend, implementing REST architecture. The application incorporates geolocation functionalities to connect geographically nearby collectors who have compatible stickers for trading, secure JWT-based authentication system, and complete collection management organized by teams and countries. The adopted methodology followed an exploratory and experimental approach, with incremental development based on agile practices, structured in seven sequential stages from problem analysis to functionality validation. The system implements MVVM architecture for the mobile frontend and MVC with service layer for the backend, ensuring proper separation of concerns and ease of maintenance. The application offers intuitive interfaces for login, registration, collection management, match visualization, collector search, and user profile. The results demonstrate a functional solution that optimizes the process of completing sticker albums, reducing costs through intelligent trades based on geographic proximity and collection compatibility, creating and connecting a community of collectors.
