When attending an event or joining a community, club or meet up group it is hard to get to know everyone, remember their names or connect with them later. The only ways to connect available right now are finding each other on facebook or other social networks or exchanging cards that more often than not get lost or are rarely ever referred to again.
ClanPages provides community/group leaders, event organizers or anyone an easy way to put together a (Clan) page where everyone who is part of the group or event can add their profile with their bios, profile pics, preferred social links, skills etc. This way everyone can see each other's profile and connect with each other before and after the events, meet ups etc.

PHP, HTML5, CSS3, Javascript, jQuery, Bootstrap, MySQL, PhpMyadmin
We started off with a java web app but quickly realized that java is not the best language for a hackathon project. We then decided to move to LAMP web stack and finish it from there.
We were able to put together a simple but polished UI and get everyone on the same page as to what the end product should be like. We collaborated quite well as a team.
Show what the library does as concisely as possible, developers should be able to figure out how your project solves their problem by looking at the code example. Make sure the API you are showing off is obvious, and that your code is short and concise.
