Inspiration

I WENT BACK TO THE BIRTHPLACE OF MY GRANDFATHER, AND I REALIZED THERE’S SO MUCH I DON’T KNOW ABOUT MY OWN CULTURE. NOW IMAGINE WHAT IT MUST BE LIKE TRYING TO GET GLIMPSE INTO DIFFERENT CULTURES ACROSS THE CONTINENT. I HAD A STRUGGLE AND THIS WAS IN SUCH CLOSE PROXIMITY, NOW WHAT IF YOU WERE INTERESTED IN GOING TO SOMEWHERE LIKE IVORY COAST, BUT WANTED TO KNOW WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON

How we built it

WE USED FLUTTER AND DOT TO BULID THE APPLICATION

Challenges we ran into

A.)UNABLE TO INITIALLY DESCRIBE OUR CONCEPT IN GOOD DETAIL B.)STRUGGLED WITH COMING UP WITH AN AGREED-UPON DIRECTION TO GO IN C.)DIFFICULT IMPLEMENTING THE FEEDBACK WE GOT WHILE STILL TRYING TO RETAIN THE ORIGINAL IDEA D.)THE TEAM MEMBERS HAD MANY DIFFERENT COMMITMENTS WHICH MADE IT TRICKY TO SIT DOWN AND WORK ON THE PROJECT

Accomplishments that we're proud of

A.)GETTING FROM IDEA TO MVP SMOOTHLY B.)RELYING ON THE DIFFERENT STRENGTHS OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE WITHIN THE TEAM

What we learned

A.)FOR US TO COME UP WITH A CONCEPT THAT HELPS PEOPLE, WE NEEDED TO REALLY UNDERSTAND AND EMPATHIZE WITH THE PROBLEM B.)A LOT OF CONCEPTS COULD BE GREAT, BUT BEING REALISTIC WHEN CREATING AN MVP IS IMPORTANT, AND KNOWING HOW TO SHAVE OFF EXCESS AS WELL AS STREAMLINE OUR PROCESSES FOR EFFICIENCY IS CONDUCIVE TO CREATING A GREAT PRODUCT

What's next for Archive

A.) SCALING : INCREASING OUR USER BASE AND HOW MUCH CONTENT IS BEING SHARED ON OUR PLATFORM B.)TESTING : FINDING OUT THROUGH DATA COLLECTION WHICH ASPECTS OF THE APPLICATION WORK IN TANDEM WITH OUR OBJECTIVES
