Best Overall Accomodations

Inspiration

The web application for DARS currently is negatively viewed by many students. We decided to make a beginner friendly version that helps you select classes like an advisor would. Additionally, this app featured a schedule, course offerings search.

What it does

It functions as a mobile app companion to the current DARS, but better, and effectively has a better UI.

How we built it

Typescript, NPM, Firebase, FireStore, Redux

Challenges we ran into

Everything. Redux, was giving authentication and state issues, Reem and Zachary were both beginners to react-native so catching up to speed was half of the task. UI issues were prominent throughout this project.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Storing metadata, authentication, getting redux to work, creating an intuitive UI.

What we learned

Firebase, Redux, react-native, how to effectively collaborate

What's next for GoDARS

Finish up authentication and prominent issues within it. Fix redux, load a user's classes, adjust courses that the user is taking. Generate recommended next moves for class scheduling.
