Context

In early 2020, travelers arriving in Bangka Belitung from epicenter regions faced a mandatory 14-day isolation. A group of friends and I started building a system to make that isolation verifiable.

What I built

  • Native Android app in Kotlin that onboarded incoming travelers and logged their location continuously through the isolation period.
  • Cross-platform React Native companion app.
  • Landing page for the public rollout.

On a quarantine breach, the logged movement let authorities trace who the traveler had been in contact with.

Outcome

The provincial government adopted the system. It was presented at the BNPB National Task Force media center in Jakarta in April 2020, then integrated into PeduliLindungi, now SatuSehat.
