Inspiration
We also want to make products that can help the community. Slice API helps us achieve that by giving the community a better platform to find the best deal they can get.
What it does
It will cross reference the purchase data from Slice and find the best deal out of it.
How I built it
We use AWS for the server and node.js and mongoDB for our backend. Frontend is built with html, javascript, and bootstrap. Slice API as our source of data.
Challenges I ran into
First time using node.js, mongoDB, and bootstrap. Had some issues with bootstrap's setup and mongoose's aggregation. In addition, we also have to get familiar with Slice API and understand how they expect us to use it.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We Did It! A working prototype that will automate the process of finding best deal out of our website's users' purchase history.
What I learned
Lots of new technologies mentioned earlier and Slice API.
What's next for Best Deal Ever
Forming a team and making it a long-term project. Hopefully we can ship it soon.
