Inspiration

Health tracker websites / apps like UC Health and Flo

What it does:

  • Gives users a place to find contacts
  • Looks pleasing to the eye
  • Can fill out forms
  • Has a basis for the Organizer info

How we built it

  • HTML and CSS
  • Semi-working Python Code
  • JavaScript

Challenges we ran into

  • Figuring out how to link our domain to our app on AWS
  • Weighing the options between S3 and Rest API
  • Getting calendar to work
  • General website front-end formatting issues

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Being able to upload to S3 and being able to pull them using Python
  • Most of our team learned to use CSS and HTML for the first time
  • How good our website looks (look at those buttons)
  • Getting through the whole hackathon

What we learned

  • 3 of us learn basic GitHub Concepts (cloning, pushing, pulling) from the 4th member
  • Learned about bootstrap (carousel)
  • HTML and CSS
  • Rest API
  • JavaScript

What's next for Health on Track

  • Uses a calendar and notification system to remind users of which medications they need to take and when they need to take them.
  • Allows organizers to make forms so users can track their own symptoms.
  • Makes contact easy between participants and hosts of the trial (a messaging system of sorts).
  • Details information of how and where the user can get their medication (address of where it's delivered to, such as a pharmacy, testing center, home, etc.). Authors can choose whether users can edit that info or if it has to stay they same.
