Prototype

ParkFlow

A school parking prototype I started after noticing that assigned spots can sit empty while other students are still waiting. It explores daily confirmations, waitlists, and fair rotation so a limited resource is easier to share and understand.

Demo

A short walkthrough of the ParkFlow parking confirmation and waitlist flow.

This demo shows how daily confirmations and the waitlist work in the current ParkFlow prototype.

What I noticed
Parking can feel unfair when more students need spots than the school has available, but some assigned spots still go unused on certain days.
What I tried
I built a prototype where permit holders confirm whether they need their parking spot for the day. If they do not confirm by a set time, the spot can be released to waitlisted students through a fair rotation system.
What I worked on
I worked on the parking flow, daily confirmation logic, waitlist access, reservation rules, and ways to explain the system so students know what is happening.
What I used
Parking flow, daily confirmation logic, waitlist access, reservation rules, and student-facing explanations.
What I learned
Fairness is not only about giving everyone the same thing. Sometimes it means making limited resources easier to understand and share.
Where it is now
ParkFlow is a prototype I built and shared as an idea for school parking.
