Better Blacksburg Transit

Inspiration

I was inspired by the fact that I need to use this app every day and so does everyone else yet somehow it is borderline useless for giving reliable and realtime information on bus arrivals and departures. It also has an ugly UI.

What it does

It is a bus transit app with live bus tracking information.

How we built it

Used expo go with react

Challenges we ran into

I dont know how to use node js or react. It is the worst thing ever made and if I had a macbook I would have built this all with swift because no one cares about android compatibility anyways.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Surviving this hackathon.

What we learned

What a component is.

What's next for Better Blacksburg Transit

Building up the back end and making it actually function as a reliable transit app.
