Inspiration
We became inspired to create this website because we knew how important it is to engage in community building activities.
What it does
Our website allows users to click on places on a map to find events that are happening in their area.
How we built it
We built the website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript as the frontend, in addition to adding data and routing the pages using Python as backend.
Challenges we ran into
One challenge we ran into was initially using Java servlet to send and receive data from the frontend. Another challenge we faced was trying to create a website in one day.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
An accomplishment we are proud of is learning how to use flask in Python to solve the problem we faced.
What we learned
We learned that collaboration is essential to creating a successful, interactive project. Without the skillsets of each member, we would not have been able to create this website.
What's next for Community Actions Near You
We are hoping to expand Community Actions Near You to include locations further than the U.S.
