How we built it The development of CarbonSnap involved a multidisciplinary approach. Leveraging AWS PartyRock for scalability and reliability, I crafted a some effective prompts for handling diverse product inputs.
Challenges we ran into The journey was not without its challenges. Accurately quantifying the carbon impact of a product demanded meticulous research into supply chains, manufacturing processes, and varying data sources. Balancing the complexity of environmental metrics with the need for a user-friendly interface presented a unique challenge in design. Addressing these challenges required a collaborative effort, drawing on expertise from environmental science, data analytics, and software development domains.
Accomplishments that we're proud of We made it running effectively.
What we learned Creating applications using PartyRock
What's next for CarbonSnap Plan is to calculate Product carbon foot print for common products and display them, plan is also to show more sustainable alternate products to the user. Display carbon graph.
