Inspiration
There are hundreds of groups and 10's of thousands of people at every university and everyone is trying to get their information across. Through all this noise, arises InterVol.
What it does
We organize events, social gatherings, study groups, and even help you find a friend to go to class with on your first day. Whether it be for educational or social purposes, we will take care of it for you.
How I built it
Together we created three functions that search through our mock database to find people that are close by that are either doing the same thing as you, are studying the same thing as you, or looking for someone to hang out with on campus.
Challenges I ran into
We encountered a very persistent error with the app delegate on Xcode that we took about an hour to solve. This gave us a time constraint towards the end of the hackathon. Next time we would have skipped the problem, added in our extra pivot ideas and have came back to it after,
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We were able to create a WORKING IOS application that has a working algorithim and Facebook integration.
What I learned
We learned a lot about coding in Swift and the way to work in views and controllers. We also learned about what makes a good presentation and business plan.
What's next for InterVol
We plan to continue with the development of our application because we believe that this is something that will solve a real problem in the world and this is also something we are passionate about.
