Gambluno

Inspiration

While playing poker with friends, someone suggested Uno. However, we felt that Uno lacked the intricacies of poker between bets and bluffing. So, when the theme was released for the Hackathon, we felt this was a perfect idea.

What it does

It shows our basic UI, and the rules. Nothing is functional, except for randomized starting cards generation.

How we built it

We used React, and tried to use Hop.io but couldn't due to problems, which is also why there is no real time functionality. We are completely new to react and web development, this is our first hackathon.

Challenges we ran into

Other than our lack of knowledge, we ran into issues with integrating the Hop.io API into our code, in which the hop staff team was somewhat helpful.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to create a web app and randomize the card generation with React, even though this is our first time with React and developing a web app.

What we learned

We learned about how to develop React, and how real time apps work. We also learned about how to use our time better during hackathons or any competition.
