As I couldn't find a team, I didn't have enough time to use the APIs I wanted to (Advanced Search - Microsoft Cognitive Services), so it is just a proof of concept "hack". This webapp allows you to order coffee before arriving at the store, or get information about any other queues wherever, for whatever. The user will be given an estimated time and a "worth your time coefficient" (between 0 and 1), and will then decide whether or not to queue. Information about the queue is crowdsourced from other users in the queue, giving information about their position in the queue and the approximate service time, as well as their opinion as to whether or not the think the queue is worth entering.

This hack was inspired by my friend Olivia.
