Career Nostradamus

Inspiration

My inspiration for this was with my own personal work experience, where I wished that I had something to kill time with that wasn't a potentially unsafe site, and also just wishing I had something easy to strike up a conversation with when it came to new workers, since our company was growing so fast and had new people everyday!

What it does

It contains a humorous 8-ball and fortune cookie simulator based off of office life to allow workers to quickly destress or kill time.

It's meant to be lighthearted and possibly even help coworkers strike up friendships coming up with things to ask Career Nostradamus!

How we built it

I built it all inside VSCode, using HTML, CSS, and javascript.

Challenges we ran into

I originally planned to be in a team of 3, but my teammates were not feeling well and so I decided to try doing this hackathon alone. It was quite the challenge to manage my time and feature set!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I'm proud that I managed to have enough time to finish up the UI/overall visual design to make it consistent across pages and make it look attractive.

What we learned

I learned that even though I am much stronger in the front end than back end thanks to my previous graphic design experience, coding the front end still takes a lot longer than I thought. I need to manage my time more wisely in future projects with that in mind!
