## Overview

GoHelpMe is a mobile disaster-help coordination app. Users can open help-finding, volunteer, and map screens from the home screen; the sampled volunteer flow submits volunteer details and checks nearby help requests, while the map displays periodically refreshed help and volunteer locations. The help screen’s implementation and the root layout were not sampled, and the README provides no further product detail, so their behavior and wiring are not inferred.

Main entry points: [`cuhackit/app/screens/VolunteerScreen.tsx`](https://github.com/hersh3y/gohelpme/blob/main/cuhackit/app/screens/VolunteerScreen.tsx) (Volunteer signup), [`cuhackit/app/screens/ViewMapScreen.tsx`](https://github.com/hersh3y/gohelpme/blob/main/cuhackit/app/screens/ViewMapScreen.tsx) (View map), [`cuhackit/app/index.tsx`](https://github.com/hersh3y/gohelpme/blob/main/cuhackit/app/index.tsx) (Home screen), [`cuhackit/app/screens/FindHelpScreen.tsx`](https://github.com/hersh3y/gohelpme/blob/main/cuhackit/app/screens/FindHelpScreen.tsx) (Find help)
