Inspiration
Two of our team members are college students from Norcal who are not familiar with the best places to go to have fun in socal, so we decided to design a website that could solve that problem. As college students, weekends can be boring (if not already filled up with exams and homeowork) so we tried to find a way for students to be "better together" through this platform!
What it does
Bucketlist targets two user types: non-local students looking for things to do, and those who are recommending locations to them. Users searching for places to go can filter them by activity types, and those who have places to recommend can input the location name, address, and tag what type of activity is relevant to this location.
How we built it
We built the project using frontend web languages and protocols (tailwind CSS, html, git, etc.). Each member was responsible for a separate part of the final product such as the UI design, coding the navbar, initial buttons, etc.
Challenges we ran into
We had many challenges with time constraints and this was the first time many of our team members worked on frontend of a website for so long.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud that we were able to complete most of the homepage's frontend in time despite a lot of setbacks.
What we learned
We became much more comfortable with our programs of choice (figma, github, etc.) after encountering issues and having to solve them using the programs.
What's next for Bucketlist
We would like to further develop the backend of Bucketlist to make the site more functional and possibly expand the categories into more diverse activities.
