Truck Harder is a webapp that ISoft is making, and it's going to be totally sweet.

What it does

  • Keeps track of what maintenance you need to do on your vehicle, and gives you reminders
  • Keeps track of the maintenance you have done on your vehicle, giving you a good maintenance history (including cool graphs and such)

Who it's for

Our main target audience will be truck owner/operators.

Eventually, there will probably be a fleet management interface.

A car-specific version will probably exist, in order that all my car-driving friends can use it and test for me.

Architecture

  • Will be tested/compatible with these from day 1: IE8+, Chrome ~4+, Firefox 3+, Safari on iOS
  • Will be fully-featured in offline mode (without a connection to our servers)
    • Local storage will probably be handled with jStorage
  • Will be fully touch-friendly from day 1 (iPad, iPhone/iPod, and hopefully Android-based devices)
    • Swipe support where appropriate (Scrollability is awesome)
    • Big buttons that are difficult to miss
    • The ability to not use a keyboard wherever possible
  • Will use an actual MVC structure

Screens/features

Every screen besides the main screen should have a "back" button at the top-left, in the style of iOS apps, that takes you to the screen directly before it.

To state it another way, the screen layout should be representable as a tree (with a depth of no more than 2, ideally).

Main screen

  • List of upcoming/possible maintenance issues on left
  • Update current mileage
  • Menu of things to do
    • Record fueling
    • Schedule maintenance
    • Edit truck information
