Inspiration

Google is easily the most important website on the internet, and for Halloween I thought it would be nice if it were a little bit more than that.

What it does

Boogle is a self-made creepy "spirit" you can ask questions about your future and about her past.

How I built it

Built completely from scratch, in a program called Brackets, Using CSS, HTML, and JavaScript.

Challenges I ran into

Lots of components I was excited to have didn't work as expected. I spent about 1 1/2 hours on a simple design I ended up scrapping completely.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

The Boogle logo is self made, code is self-written and characteristics of the "spirit" were self-thought. Each question is carefully thought out, and finding new questions is easy. Also I tried to make it as close as possible to the actual Google website, trying to be as close as possible without looking at the Google website source code. I payed extreme attention to detail. Copying even the slightest detail from the Google website that you wouldn't even notice unless I pointed it out. Also I tried my best for the website to work with all screen sizes, even though it was built on a larger screen.

What I learned

Tiny details arn't important until the program is actually functional.

What's next for Boogle - A spooky remake of Google.

I plan to expand it far past this hackathon. Sooner or later I want to make an Amazon Echo say the replies as well as the website itself.
