Contact Tracing App

This is a Contact Tracing App built using Flutter, Google Nearby API, and Firebase. The app is designed to assist in tracking close contact interactions for better pandemic management and health monitoring.

Features

• Nearby Device Detection: Uses Google Nearby API to detect and exchange encrypted identifiers with nearby devices.
• Contact Logging: Stores interactions with other devices securely in Firebase.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: Built with Flutter for a seamless cross-platform experience.
• Backend: Firebase for real-time database and cloud storage.
• Communication: Google Nearby API for Bluetooth-based proximity detection.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/contact-tracing-app.git
   cd contact-tracing-app

2. Install dependencies:

   flutter pub get

3. Set up Firebase:

   • Create a Firebase project in the Firebase Console.
   • Add your app's google-services.json (for Android) or GoogleService-Info.plist (for iOS) files to the project.

4. Run the app:

   flutter run

How It Works

1. When the app is running, it uses the Google Nearby API to detect other devices in proximity.
2. If a user reports a positive case, their interaction history is uploaded to Firebase.

Future Enhancements

• Add geolocation-based contact tracking.
• Enable QR code-based check-ins for public spaces.
• Implement advanced analytics for health authorities.
