Stores Around You: Stores finder app template

Are you looking for a template to kickstart your App project? Then StoresAround Universal App Template might be the solution you are looking for. It kickstarts a localization App project that allows people to locate and submit nearby stores. The app user can search for store locations up to 100 KM radius. The app also has a news section which you can edit on your Parse Dashboard. You can also use the same interface to add new store entries or edit existing ones and add new images.

You do not need a domain name or hosting to get this app up and running because it is powered by Parse Server. Also, there is no need for uploading an HTML or PHP document; so you can strike out the cost of a domain name and hosting.

Another option for inserting or editing the data in your Parse Dashboard is the Adminca Panel. First, create your app on back4app, then head on to https://adminca.com to create a free account. After that, create a new panel, select the self-hosted Parse server option and add your host ID, App ID, and Master Keys in the fields provided. These parameters are available in the Core Settings on your back4app panel. That’s all you need to do to manage your Parse Dashboard with the Adminca Panel.
