Students at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, recently launched a Fiesta Oyster Bake mobile app. The new app showed a festival map with food and other booth locations for a bucket of oysters or a chicken-on-a-stick. The app was made available via the Google Play store for Android phones, and the team of six Computer Science and Computer Information Systems seniors is said to be considering developing a version for iPhones.
Christine Flores, Computer Information Systems senior and student assistant for St. Mary’s Alumni Relations, said the idea to create the app came from the team’s internship experiences in agile team development. The internships allowed the students to develop projects through analyzing and processing the systems needed by a business owner.
According to St. Mary’s, the students put in more than 400 hours of work to develop the app with show times, maps, merchandise information and answers to frequently asked questions. They had the Fiesta Oyster Bake Companion app finished in time for Fiesta Oyster Bake on Friday, April 12, and Saturday, April 13.
