Inspiration

I and 100+ other grad students live in an apartment complex that is run by our school. Students who live here have been sending one off email requests (i.e requesting printer for the apartment) to the school admins but haven't been receiving much help from.

What it does

Students/residents are able to create new conversation threads under certain topic/label. Other users are then able to comment on those threads to share thoughts.

How we built it

I strictly followed the tutorial linked below as I wanted to gain more Django knowledge/experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtQiiknWUcI&t=15069s

Django, HTML, a bit of CSS used

Challenges we ran into

Because I followed the tutorial, I didn't have much trouble. However, I want to further expand on the tutorial and pay more attention to user authorization.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

What we learned

Prior to this, I had done 1 team-based Django project only. During that project, I didn't fully grasp Django but this time, I took my time to learn.

What's next for Lancaster Voice
