Inspiration

There are so many immigrants who come to the U.S. The U.S. is land for American Dream to come true. But how can this happen with the overwhelming of adapting to culture shock and the new language. We considered this problem and wanted to create a website addressing this problem.

What it does

How we built it

JavaScript, HTML, CSS on repl.it

Challenges we ran into

-Implementing translation feature -Handling Promises -Learning web development for this first time

Accomplishments that we're proud of

-Creating a translation tool -Successfully creating a website despite time constraints

What we learned

-JSON data -Google Translate API -The immigrant experience (+ difference in cultures)
