🧥 styleis.tech — Style Meets Sustainability

Fast Fashion is killing the planet.
styleis.tech (Style-is-dot-Tech) is a full-stack web app that helps users track their outfits, get insights on what they don’t actually wear, and encourages sustainable behavior by recommending local donation options.


🌍 Inspiration

Most of us own clothes we never wear — yet someone out there could really use them.
We built styleis. tech to close that loop: help people understand their real clothing habits and make donating easy, accessible, and data-driven.

  • 🎁 Smart Donations: Recommends local donation centers where those clothes could go.
  • 📦 Donation Basket: Users can review, confirm, and prepare their donation list with a single tap.
  • 🌤 Bonus: Integrates weather and location APIs for smart outfit recommendations.
