ByteHacks2020: Cyberlink Project

Inspiration: We were inspired to join the hackathon since we love to code and we have never done anything like a hackathon before. We were inspired to write about the bubonic plague due to the coronavirus pandemic. Due to the pandemic, many people have passed away due to not taking simple precautions. Since this and the bubonic plague are similar. We thought that we could learn a thing or two about the plague to help prevent the spread of the virus today.

What it does: Our website is designed to inform people about the plague and to help them avoid it. Our website also includes a quiz to make sure that people have a proper understanding of the plague. We will make sure that people know how to combat this deadly plague. Our website will save millions of lives.

How we built it: We build our website using 5 different languages, we used HTML, CSS, Python, javascript, and English. At first, we used HTML/CSS to make the website, then we incorporated python and javascript to help make the quiz so that the user can answer the questions and see if their answers were correct or wrong.

Challenges we ran into: The biggest challenge we ran into was figuring out how to make a quiz. First, we needed to find out how to make it so that the user could choose an answer to a question. Then we used python to have it so we could figure out whether the answer was correct or wrong. Then that information was sent to the javascript which then highlighted the answer in green if it's correct and red if it's wrong.

Accomplishments that we're proud of: We are really proud of our quiz and our navigation bar since we had no idea how to make the quiz and had no idea how to make the navbar work.

What we learned: We learned how to work together as a group efficiently, and we learned how to get HTML, CSS, javascript, and Python to worth together in unison.

What's next for ByteHacks2020: Cyberlink Project: We are going to use what we have learned on future hackathons to do better and better every time.
