JoIN

This web application will help hackathon's attenders to take a break while socializing with other participants.

Inspiration

The application is inspired by the popular table game who is who, but adapting it to the new technologies, in order to make it viable to use it in a social event like a hackathon.

What it does

The game is designed for two players. When you will open the app, your description will be asked in order to create a temporal profile to play.

In this game, you will have to find another participant with the brief description facilitated. Both players are tracked in real time and the distance with each other will be displayed. You must hurry up because the time is limited to five minutes.

How we built it

The frontend is built with Ionic (angular framework) and the backend with Fast Api (Python)

Challenges we ran into

The most difficult challenge we ran into, has been the fact of syncing both players because we have never done it before.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the final result because it's a function that can be used in any type of social events, not only destined to hackathon.

What we learned

We learned to make an API with Fast API in order to connect both clients to a server in the middle. We also have improved our knowledge about Ionic.

What's next for JoIN

This app can be improved in a several ways, like introducing a login system, ranking and some other characteristics.
