What it does
This app was built as a platform that connect people around us that needs help or want to help others
How we built it
This app was built based on ReactJS frontend and Firebase as the backend. We also utilized advance technology such as PWA (progressive web apps), Firebase Auth, Firebase Cloud Messaging, Firestore to boost user experience
We use Firebase as our backend to support "fast-development" since this was hackathon with 2-days deadline to built MVP
Challenges we ran into
Since we implement Maps into our application, we have struggled in searching free apis that support features that we offer or plan.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud that our app are running pretty well, and every features that we planned have been developed and deployed without problem.
What we learned
We learned how to work fast and how to make decision as fast as possible, because the greatest challenge in hackathon is Time
