Inspiration

We realised that deciding on places to meet up with friends can be a hassle. It is difficult to come to a final decision, when in reality, we just want to meet our friends at a convenient place with something, anything to do. After all, it is the company that is important, not the activity.

What it does

Linkup cleverly triangulates a location between you and your friends and searches for popular attractions in the area

How I built it

We built it using React on the front end with a Flask backend that queries google api

Challenges I ran into

We found it difficult to get accurate results from our search.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We are proud that we got a working application that while is not perfect, is fully functioning and deployed

What I learned

I learned how to deploy a flask backend to heroku and connect it to a react front end

What's next for LinkUp

Who knows? :)
