Gain Structure

Inspiration

Imagine you’re waiting for a party to begin. You’ve put on some fresh new threads, you did your hair, you look fantastic. The only thing that can derail this night is a lame DJ playlist. If only there was a way for people to collectively vote on which songs they want to hear throughout the night.

What it does

Allows user to vote on the order of a playlist using state of the art algorithms 

How I built it

Trial and error, probably 4-5 hours were spent trying to figure out how to write javascript and implement python code. Our fearless leader Shota San has done an amazing job building the web application that we wrote the back end for the list sorting and verification 

Challenges I ran into

Learning how to work with API’s none of us have any experience working with API’s we sat down 11 hours ago and now we still don’t know what we are doing but we were able to implement this well.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

There were times when I wanted to smash my computer, but I didn’t, I took a shot of red bull and kept googling until I found the answer to my problems.

What I learned

How much fun hackathons are, going into this I had no idea what to expect besides a sleepless night. I now know that a Hackathon is a rewarding, challenging experience.
