Chat++
Inspiration:
We love coding and on so many occasions, we would often want to show off our project work or find a different way of writing up a function or two. There has not been however, a platform where we can easily talk and dynamically collaborate and share our code with our friends. Thus, ChatPlusPlus was born.
What it does:
It is a messaging service which also implements an IDE to write and edit code. The IDE is also able to be rerun with different input easily which makes it ideal for a flexible learning experience.
How we Built it:
We used Angular for the front-end and Firebase for the back-end with DigitalOcean as the website host. We used Sphere Engine to add the IDEs.
Challenges:
Using an external API to work with widgets Members are still new to Angular with limited time to learn it.
Accomplishments:
We created a functional messaging service web app.
What we learned:
We learned a variety of web technologies, and learned the importance of structured planning.
What’s next for our project:
We will polish the features of the website and we hope to deploy it. :)
