Inspiration
When coming up with Herstory Walk we discussed how there are so many significant women in history but they are often not highlighted in classes or historical sites. Our goal is to raise awareness and inspire women by teaching them about the many endeavors taken on by women who lived before them.
What it does
Our website utilizes the IPinfo API to pinpoint women-centric historical sites within a 10-mile radius of the user's device location. These sites are presented in a scroll-down menu, featuring the name, a brief description, and intriguing fun facts. By selecting a location, users are seamlessly directed to Google Maps, providing step-by-step directions from their current location to the chosen destination.
Challenges we ran into
One challenge we ran into was understanding how to connect the back end of our code to the front end using python flask. It was an entirely new concept to us but we can now say we have learned a new skill.
