The application is based on the REST API software architecture pattern, communication between the backend application and frontend applications is achieved with help of the JSON data format. The first part describes used technologies as well as programming environment preparation. The core part is the description of development of the application backend project which is created in ASP.NET Core framework accompanied by Entity Framework Core, MySQL, and other commonly used and readily available technologies. The subsequent sections are focused on the frontend applications. The mobile application project is realized in the Flutter SDK, while the web application project is developed in Angular framework. Implementation of the REST API allows the frontend applications to send and fetch data to the backend server. The fetched data is displayed in the application’ interface to allow users’ interaction.
