Inspiration
We were interested in exploration of more frontend heavy development as both members of the team have done extensive work in backend development and functionality. As such, we tried our best to learn Flask and web development. We tried to keep it close to the theme by making it camping themed.
What it does
It's a simple to-do list to minimize backend functionality requirement. Has an account login system and minimalistic task creation/deletion/traversal.
How we built it
We built it in Python with Flask, a SQLite database (which could be swapped for something like PostgreSQL but felt overkill), and HTML/CSS/JS elements.
Challenges we ran into
It was both of our first times diving into backend development, so it was an interesting learning experience.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The website doesn't look too bad and there are no broken elements.
What we learned
A lot about frontend development, and particularly HTML troubles because we had a lot of issues with formatting and dynamic loading.
What's next for Cozy Camping Checklist
A much more fleshed out system with larger functionality and a better UI (accounting perhaps for accessibility).
