Inspiration
When we were learning about web development, we felt that there were not many engaging online resources to guide beginners. As Albert Einstein said "Learning is experience. Everything else is just information." We were inspired to create an experience for our fellow beginners. We also wanted to apply what we have learnt in our first Django project together.
What it does
HackToRoll is all about the experience. Have some good laughs and learn about the internal workings of a website all in four challenges! Try it and experience the feeling of accomplishment!
How we built it
Our foundation in Django was built with Coursera :") (thank you NUS for the free Coursera) followed by many googling and stackoverflowing. We would like to credit bootstrapmade.com for providing us with the basis to create a nice home page.
Challenges we ran into
Screwing up routings and screwing up directories in Django.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Completed all the four challenges and creating such a nice Django project as first timers. Most importantly, we had lots of fun. :)
What we learned
Perseverance, bootstrap, in-depth Django.
What's next for HackToRoll
Waiting for real feedback from all to update our testimonials section on our home page. All MITs and WITs are welcome. On a more serious note, we are open to any suggestions to improve and extend the challenges.
