Inspiration
We we're inspired by satirical news websites like the Onion which creates fake news articles
What it does
REM News is a fake news website dedicate to the fact that the journalist on the website how proprietary tools used to read the minds of Canadians. Our idea was that every article has a strange feature somehow relating to the dreams commented on in the article. For example, one news article on adults who are terrified of the dark uses the cursor as a flashlight.
How we built it
We used React and CSS for styling.
Challenges we ran into
2/3 of our group members have never used React before. We really struggled in the first 4 hours because we had a few issues that had simpler solutions than we thought.
What we learned
We learned the importance of a solid MVP and to stick to the plan.
What's next for REM News
We hope to implement a feature where users can share their own articles and dreams. The users will then be able to generate images using AI related to their post.
