Australia has had some of the worst wildfires in recorded history, so we just wanted to build a tool to help every-day Australians get through this crisis.

Our website helps aggregate, via crowd-sourcing, crucial information about the spread of wildfires in Australia.

We hosted a web-server using Go, and created the client-side using Google's Maps-API and a lot of JavaScript.

A-synchronized requests between the client and server posed serious issues for this project. We attempted to simplify the relationship between the server and client as much as possible in order to resolve this issue.

The website turned out to be both incredibly simple to use, and incredibly helpful. For this, we are extremely proud.

A lot... We worked with google's map-api for the first time. We learned a great deal about client-server interactions, and a lot of javascipt.

We're going to host a website (not just locally), and possibly create a smartphone app

Simply clone repository, and if Go is already dowladed, type "go run main.go" into the command line, and open localhost:8080 in chrome.
