Inspiration
We were inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic occurring in Canada, and how it is affecting Canadians.
What it does
Our program allows Canadians to get information about the pandemic in Canada easily, and also provides resources that Canadians could use.
How we built it
We built it using Python 3.
Challenges we ran into
Some challenges we ran into included coming up with a good idea (it took us a very long time to do so), and to be able to efficiently collaborate on the project. It's our first hackathon, so we didn't know what to do with our somewhat basic programming skills.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud of the fact that we were able to learn new things about python (including referencing a spreadsheet from GitHub into our code, using pandas, datetime, and the ability to gather useful information for ourselves and the public).
What we learned
We have learned a lot of new concepts and methods for python, and also we have learned all about the hackathon experience!
What's next for COVID-19 Support Program for Canadiansr
Once we get more proficient in Python (and start using machine learning, etc.) we could use those technologies and apply them to our program.
