Inspiration
In a day and age where we have to wake up daily to face the gaunlet before us, we have much that is out of our control. Wet socks from rain, a shirt drenched in sweat from the heat, traffic, absurdly long lines for your coffee, buses running off schedule, and too many more. We have a million choices to make in an instant based off of information that we cannot gather, and just like that you can ruin your entire day in that instant.
Too many unknowns, and too much chaos.
The goal of J.I.T. is to take all of the unexpected things that will ruin your day, and expect them for you.
What it does
J.I.T. takes input from a user, such as a wake-up alarm and calendar, and will pull a mass of data accessible online about your location, the weather, traffic, etc... and after that point. J.I.T. will give you all of the information you need to decide.
How we built it
We built it with Python and Tkinter GUI. We also used Google Maps API and National Weather Service API
Challenges we ran into
We learned a lot of things about Git and Github, and also how to make requests to large API services.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Implement ideal algorithms to determine the most efficient route.
What we learned
We learned the importance of having a good version control plan. We shouldn't use Git and VS Code Live Share at the same time.
What's next for J.I.T (Just in Time)
Instead of a predetermined list of locations, we can make it so every building on campus can be selected.
