Club Events Finder

Inspiration

I was primarily motivated by a couple of club events which I thought were cool, but didn't seem to get as much traction as I thought they would. I also do not like having to look at several other places (facebook, instagram, email, etc.) and thought that it would be much easier for there to be one app that makes it much easier to look for events. Also because I wanted to be able to search for events on campus which give free food and this is one of the ways to make that easier.

What it does

This app centralizes the process of looking for events, and can also format them into a calendar to give an overview of what is happening when.

How we built it

It is built completely in Rust with Leptos as the framework, which allows all ends to be written in Rust.

Challenges we ran into

Having to write a few CSS classes for me is much more tedious than writing scalable applications and took much longer than anticipated. Also when I was starting I didn't notice my rendering was set to ssr so trying to get csr specific things to work (such as serialization of user tokens & using set_interval) did not work which took awhile to figure out. I also had a URT meeting at 1:30 which took up quite a bit of time on the final day.
