Inspiration
We all have experiences coming into a new environment whether it's as a freshman in college or as a new resident to Canada. We all had difficulty at the beginning to make friends with similar experiences and culture, so we wanted to find a solution to this problem.
What it does
Community is a web app that allows users to make new friends with similar interests and ask questions to other peers in the same college or university.
How we built it
We used Figma to prototype the project.
Challenges we ran into
Although we had some difficultly confirming our concept at first, we were able to talk out our ideas, take down possible options and weigh out the feasibility and wow factor of them all.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
As a group , we are proud to have been able to allocate tasks and communicate between the design and dev side efficient so that we could all work on the project as soon as possible. On the design side, we are proud of the use of more advanced smart animations that make the prototype interact like a real web app.
What we learned
Since hackathons are new to all of us, we learned to work with others in a group and centralize our ideas to create one solution.
What's next for Community
In the future, community can scale to become a tool for not only schools but offices and other workplaces to enhance the sense of community.
