Inspiration
-According to EPA, a car, on average, emits 411 grams of CO2 per mile and it had me thinking about how much carbon emissions cloud service I use a daily basis use.
What it does
- It calculates the carbon emissions of a cloud service's use over a given duration of time.
How I built it
- Researched different APIs that gave data on the carbon emissions of each cloud service. I settled on Climatiq 's API.
- I started by fleshing out the frontend (a rare approach for me)
- Sorted out the API requests on the backend. (I only got one page to work.)
Challenges we ran into
- Making API requests, SvelteKit has a particular way of doing it.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- The fact I pushed my problem-solving skill to the limit and completed my first hackathon.
What we learned
- How to use SvelteKit.
- How differently each framework does routing.
What's next for Carbon Cloud
- Hopefully finishing the other pages
