About
Cities are becoming smarter to meet our needs, and parking spaces are an essential part of urban design. As a developer, you can help improve them. In this project, you will create a parking lot management program that keeps track of vacant spots and parked cars.
Graduate project
This project covers the core topics of the Kotlin Core course, making it sufficiently challenging to be a proud addition to your portfolio.
At least one graduate project is required to complete the course.
What you'll learn
Once you choose a project, we'll provide you with a study plan that includes all the necessary topics from your course to get it built. Here’s what awaits you:
Display some simple examples of parking or picking up a car.
Create a simple parking lot with two spots.
Two? How about twenty! Your parking lot is now bigger, and it can take cars if there’s room and keep track of those that leave.
Make it possible to specify the size of your parking lot and request the list of all parked cars.
You can filter cars by color or find your car by its registration number.

I practiced separating concer ...
