Inspiration
Inspired by team's experience on missing out or rushing through multiple application deadlines, as well as hard to keep up with most up-to-date information on new hackathons or when registration opened up, therefore created this application.
What it does
Automatic generate “to-do” according to deadline proximity. Saves more time with application process by revise and editing previous answer to similar question from previous application.
How we built it
Build with Python BeautifulSoup library
Challenges we ran into
Solo team running into problems at midnight when mentors are off to bed zzz
Accomplishments that we're proud of
This is my first time coding in python as well as my first web-scraping project. Due to some personal event there was a conflict in time and I had about a day off from the total hacking time, but finally I am able to put my hands on web-scraping this powerful (maybe too powerful tool) and understand the logic behind it, which has always been something I wished to learn.
What we learned
Python and web-scraping!
What's next for HackYeah!
Complete the project and push it to GitHub! Currently the functions are quite basic and the code is not the most efficient. This project has great flexibility to be altered to fit other needs when it comes to automate the information collection process, such as for uni, for job, etc.
