Technology Stack & Development Approach

1. Flutter with BLoC Architecture

Deenify was developed using Flutter, Google’s cross-platform framework, ensuring a native experience on both Android and iOS.

I implemented the BLoC (Business Logic Component) pattern, which:

  • Provides a structured state management approach for handling user interactions.

  • Ensures efficient app performance with reactive UI updates.

  • Separates UI and business logic, making future enhancements easier.

2. Offline Functionality with SQLite

  • The app uses SQLite to store Quran text, translations, and Hadith collections, enabling offline access.

  • A local database indexing system was implemented to speed up search queries and minimize data load time.

3. GPS & Sensor-Based Qiblah Finder

  • The Qiblah direction finder integrates GPS and device magnetometer sensors to accurately detect the Kaaba direction.

  • The app works in airplane mode using previously saved location data.

4. Push Notifications & Adhan Alerts

  • Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) is used for delivering real-time notifications for prayer reminders.

  • Local notifications ensure alerts even without an internet connection.

5. Secure and Optimized Performance

  • Efficient caching mechanisms ensure fast data retrieval.

  • Flutter’s asynchronous programming model ensures smooth UI performance without lag.

  • The app is lightweight, using minimal device resources while offering rich features.

Challenges & Solutions

1. Managing Large Data Offline

  • Problem: Storing the entire Quran and Hadith collections while keeping the app lightweight.

  • Solution: Used compressed SQLite databases and lazy loading techniques to optimize storage without compromising speed.

2. Handling Different Prayer Calculation Methods

  • Problem: Users from different regions follow different prayer time calculations.

  • Solution: Implemented a dynamic selection system, allowing users to choose from various Islamic calculation methods.

3. Accurate Qiblah Detection

  • Problem: Ensuring precise Qiblah direction detection in different environments.

  • Solution: Combined GPS location data, magnetometer sensors, and manual calibration options for improved accuracy.

User Impact & Benefits

1. Accessibility & Convenience

  • Offline features enable users to read the Quran, Hadith, and Duahs without needing an internet connection.

  • The app is lightweight, ensuring smooth performance even on older devices.

2. Spiritual Enhancement & Daily Use
