Hackathon Joint Calendar

Inspiration

We were inspired by the hackathon idea projects to create a custom calendar application

What it does

You can create and log in as multiple users, each user can modify their own timetable and view their next 3 events.

How we built it

We used exclusively c++ and the standard lib, no external libraries. We created our own timepoint class, we did not use the std::chrono lib for the implementation of our calendar program, only to get the external time into a format we could use

Challenges we ran into

We had a lot of functionality we wanted to have, but didn't have the time to implement it.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating a timepoint class from scratch. Finishing a big project with two absolute beginners on a team of 3

What we learned

Learnt some intricacies of the i/o stream in c++, dealing with trailing /n. Setting a reasonable scope given a tight timeframe. One of us learn how to code, came in with no programming experience, left with basic oop.

What's next for Hackathon Joint Calendar

We would like to classify events as public, private or protected and allow all users to view them dependent on their access permission We would like to be able to organize meetings between multiple users, and have the computer find the best times.

Note

We had a third teammate who couldn't add themselves to the devpost.
