Credential Pursuit

The internet can be a dangerous place even for the most seasoned web users, but children are always at a higher risk. This project teaches youth important account security practices.

Inspiration

I initially wanted to compete in the Auth0 challenge, so they were my initial spark of inspiration hence the login game.

What it does

This simple game teaches youth important account security practices they can take with them all throughout life.

How I built it

A lot of ChatGPT, a lot of Stack Overflow, a lot of YouTube, and way too much uninstalling and reinstalling.

Challenges I ran into

This was my first time doing front-end which was a big learning curve for me, as was Git. I have also _ never used an API _ before, or Auth0 so after hours of trying to get my game to integrate with the service, I had to move on to a different idea.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I'm really glad I tried this! I've never done anything like this before and I've never actually competed in a hackathon! I really stepped outside of my comfort zone this weekend and I definitely learned a lot.

What I learned

How NOT to set up Git, and how to install, then uninstall, then reinstall every application under the sun.

What's next for Credential Pursuit

I've been wanting to start making content that teaches people of all ages about media literacy and proper online safety practices, so hopefully, I can expand on this and and really help people stay safe online and feel more secure.
