Uma aplicação móvel para divulgação de resultados e conteúdo de jogos de futebol feminino

Abstract

Football is historically a male sport, but in recent years its female sport has been gaining more and more notoriety, with the growth of professional female teams and their presence in the media. Parallel to this, the application market is growing and tends to follow people’s interest, in the world of football it was no different, soon there were numerous phone applications that bring content about the sport to their fans. However, current football-oriented apps expose men’s football content as a priority, so that content about women’s football is deprioritized, which generates applications that do not reflect the interests of users whose main interest is women’s football . In this context, this work aims to develop an application with game content, results, news and other information about women’s football. The development model and the objective of each stage is defined along with the milestones and deliverables for the continuation of the work, documenting the entire process of the software life cycle, from its conception to its delivery, the challenges encountered, the technical decisions made and the description of the stages of development. A brief market analysis is carried out to assess the public’s interest in a women’s soccer application, after which the proposed application’s functionalities are defined, through a survey of the functionalities of existing soccer applications. Then, the tools and other technical decisions for standardizing and implementing the features are defined. With the modeling decisions completed, application coding is performed, resulting in the executable application. At the end of development, the application is then made available for users to download and use. Finally, the available application is validated through an evaluation survey, where users who feel comfortable can answer a questionnaire that assesses their satisfaction with the functions and use of the women’s soccer application, in order to assess whether the work met audience expectations and delivered a satisfying experience.
