We wanted to bring small businesses bigger audiences, and share our passion for community development. We wanted to surpass mainstream brand names that people commonly look for, and allow unique and specified inventory options.
We built this website using html coding, django, and css.
We struggled to broaden the amount of small businesses to feature on our website. We wanted to expand but were unable to include as many as we wanted because of time restraints. Our idea is to eventually have multiple topics, beyond simply "Fashion" and "Food". It was also a struggle to actual get a website domain for the website, since you have to pay and we do not have the resources to pay for a domain. So as of now, there is no domain for out website to be hosted. We also did not have the sufficient about fully build the website because we came on Saturday instead of doing the full 24 hours beginning on Friday
Our layout of the website came out exactly as we imagined it. The flow of website is easy to access and customer friendly, and we feel that our idea was executed well.
We learned about how to manage our time efficiently in order to get a project of this scale done, and how to alter our goals to meet realistic constraints.
Our project will continue to grow and we will add more small businesses as well as different topic options. We will broaden the scale and add more elements to our website, including an AI chatbot to address frequently asked questions of the users of our website. It would also be beneficial in the future to get some sort of way to filter said small businesses into a specific area, if we had more time.
