Inspiration

  • Letterboxd
  • The glorious KFC API, which gives you information about every KFC in the UK

What it's supposed to do

  • Let users review restaurants (with upvotes and downvotes, Reddit style)
  • Let users upvote and downvote comments
  • Let users follow each other
  • Show list of popular restaurants based on search filters

What it actually does

  • Almost nothing

How we built it

  • Badly

Challenges we ran into

  • Too ambitious (had to keep reducing scope)
  • Not enough time
  • Making the (excellent) decision to watch LOTR instead of coding

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • A frontend written purely in HTML and CSS (we no longer want to do web dev ever)
  • A backend in glorious Rust 🦀

What we learned

  • Webscraping
  • Gotta keep it simple and scalable
