In the thesis we present the development of a platform for exchanging agricultural machinery. In the process of planning and implementing the project
we take current tools and follow a modern concept of development. The two main adavantages of the platform are the use of customer location for
easier and faster searching of items and a process called "smart matches" that is periodically checking if the user active items have any opposing
type items that could be interesting for the user.
The first part is comprised of database planning, based on the use case diagram, in MySQL Workbench and its realization in MySQL database. We
also describe the platform implementation in Zend Framework 2 using the Model-View-Controller concept. Technologies like HTML, PHP, AJAX, JSON
and JavaScript are widely used here. The first part ends with a brief description of libraries used to help us shorten the implementation time and a few
words about the programming of a mobile application with PhoneGap tool.
The second part is focused on the two main advantages of the platform. Client position utilitazion in our platform and items smart matches algorithm
are presented within this part.
The work concludes with ideas and possibilities for further development of the platform and a quick comparison with similar, existing solutions.
