Inspiration

inconvenience of carrying gift cards along with the chance of losing them. Along with this, the balance is always in question.

What it does

CardCache is an app that allows a user to collect gift cards in their wallet. In the wallet users are able to see their balance, add gift cards, and scan gift cards to use them. The marketplace allows users to buy, sell, and trade gift cards in the auction house.

How we built it

built using the following tools

1. html
2. CSS
3. Github
4. Visual Studio
5. Android Studio + Emulator
6. Photoshop
7. OneNote

Challenges we ran into

1. All team members had zero coding experience with all platforms used
2. Paywalls
3. Xcode and SwiftUI could not be ran on PC
4. Android Studio app testing and creating was difficult
5. Alignment

Accomplishments that we're proud of

1. Creating a website
2. Sticking with 1 idea
3. Having a final product
4. Learned countless new coding styles

What we learned

We learned to stick with one idea and figure out which coding style worked best. We learned that trial and error is the best form of learning while coding. We learned many types of problem solving strategies while coding. Along with this we learned many technical skills like, html, tags, visual studio, photoshop, CSS, and Android Studio

What's next for CardCache

We hope CardCache can develop into and entirely independent gift card market. It would allow users to satisfy all gift card needs, from time of purchase until time of use. In the future, geo-location will suggest gift cards based on location and user preference. Also, users can buyout of gift cards by paying a large taxation set by company.
