Inspiration

A friend is someone who constantly challenges you to become the best version of yourself. Our app aims to allow users to create, discover, share, and conquer challenges together with friends. It also allows users to experience new things vicariously through friends, particularly long distance ones.

What it does

It's a web app that allows users to propose to or share challenges with their friends, who would then decline or accept the challenge and submit photos or videos as proof. Who can complete the 30-day run 5k challenge?? Who can eat the spiciest food?? Who looks the best in a blindfold outfit challenge?? Who comes out with the best memes?! Let the fun ensue! Users can also explore new challenges from various categories to entertain themselves.

How we built it

We built the front-end and back-end server component using React and Django respectively. Motivation+dedication.

Challenges we ran into

Developing the backend database server was the most challenging part for us. This is in part due to the sheer volume of interconnected data.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Stayed up more than 24 hours to develop our app prototype.

What we learned

Sleep deprivation is really bad for our health. DocSoc is amazing! Coding WITH FRIENDS is fun =)

What's next for Challenge-Me!

Adding a feature to (i) allow the challenge proposer to verify whether if the challenge has actually been successfully completed; (ii) add friends; (iii) do group challenges.
