Inspiration

As part of a CS19100 homework, we had to use the myPurdue Planner and we were very unhappy with the web app so we decided to change it.

What it does

Helps people design a 4 year plan quickly and easily with a pleasing UI design.

How we built it

We built it using Node.Js as the back end, Firebase as the database, used Angular.Js to make the front end pretty and work.

Challenges we ran into

Random bugs like the drag and drop not working. We also had the problem of only one person actually knowing Angular.Js and the rest of us were just learning as we go.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud that our app works, that there is authentication and you can login again and still have all of your classes in the correct semesters.

What we learned

We learned how projects actually come together and how much collaboration goes into a web app. We also learned new languages.

What's next for Hello-World

We hope to come back next year and help be mentors for the second annual Hello-World Hackathon. We hope through this hackathon that we can inspire and help next year's freshman at least as much as the current mentors have helped us.
