Grão de Ouro: uma aplicação móvel em Outsystems voltada para o monitoramento dos valores e das notícias do mundo da cafeicultura global

Abstract

Brazil is recognized worldwide as a leader in coffee production and exports, making this a sector of strategic importance to the national economy. However, small and medium-sized producers, who constitute the foundation of Brazilian coffee production, face constant challenges in accessing up-to-date information on the market value of their product. This information asymmetry negatively impacts their sales decisions and compromises their profitability. This project proposes the development of an accessible and high-impact technological solution: a mobile application designed to function as an information and knowledge hub. The platform will provide current and relevant news about the coffee market, as well as real-time quotes on fluctuations in the value of a bag of coffee. The application was developed on the low-code OutSystems platform, using Service Studio as its integrated development environment (IDE) and Figma for prototyping the user interfaces (UI/UX). The architecture followed the layered model recommended by OutSystems, structuring the project into presentation (End-User), domain (Core), and data (Foundation) modules. This methodological approach aims to guarantee the maintainability, scalability and clarity of the solution, ensuring the viability and evolution of the project in the long term.
