Our Inspiration

In light of the recent Australian wildfires, we decided to make an application to aid affected individuals in similar situations.

Our Build

We separated the application into several portions to work on: the UI, the Firebase authentication/database, and the homepage.

Concepts Learned

We refreshed our knowledge of programming languages. In addition, we learned various technologies such as Firebase and Google Maps API.

Challenges Faced

We had a difficult time implementing the several portions of our project to create one comprehensive application.

I worked on the back-end using Javascript and Firebase. I set-up authentication via Firebase Authentication and stored data in databases via Firestore. I wasn't able to completely finish the implementation with the website/UI, but that's a project I'd like to complete in the future.

I worked on front-end, making the request form. It was my first time working with HTML and CSS, but I learned a lot.
