Inspiration

Theme: Learning Reimagined As computer science students, we recognize that learning about data structures can be quite challenging. Thus, we wanted to create a web application that incorporates real-world examples to help users develop a better understanding of the functionality of various data structures.

What it does

Our web application, DS Playground provides users with interactive modules for various data structures such as queues. Through engaging in these modules, users will develop a solid understanding of fundamental concepts and be able to apply them to more challenging scenarios.

How we built it

We used JavaScript, HTML and CSS to build our project.

Challenges we ran into

This was our very first hackathon, so everything was very new for us. We had to learn JavaScript, HTML, and CSS as we worked through our project as we had no prior experience in any of the languages.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are extremely proud of having successfully developed our very first web application and created a user-interactive game module.

What we learned

Throughout this process, we learned JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. We also learned patience and problem-solving.

What's next for DS Playground

Our goals for DS PLayground are to implement more modules for various data structures such as stacks and binary search trees, as we were only able to complete a module for queues. We would also like to implement coding exercises for each data structure so we can teach users how to implement and modify different data structures.
