Inspiration

So you've picked all of your courses for next quarter. You've found the perfect schedule except for one problem: exactly how far away are your classes? PolyTripper shows you the distance between all of your classes as well as the shortest route between them. Made for Slo Hacks Go.

What it does

It finds all of your classes and plots the shortest path between them.

How I built it

We built upon an existing Cal Poly map program and added enhancements as necessary.

Challenges I ran into

Our team did not have experience with the MapBox API, so we had to learn that in a few hours. Items still cannot be removed from the itinerary. Also, our team decided on this project with about 1/3 of the hackathon left, which caused a lot of undue distress.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We have a working prototype.

What I learned

Decide on your hackathon project as early as possible.

What's next for PolyTripper

Hopefully we will be able to release this to the public sometime soon.
