What it does

It uses google places, gemini, and firebase to store, retrieve, and use data that the users give to the chatbot to help them make decisions and organize themselves better. It uses a location that is given to the program (set in Newark for the sake of the hackathon) to help find doctors and specialists nearby. It uses symptoms the user inputs to make a somewhat accurate decision of what specialist to go to and if it is completely unsure it will recommend a general physician or urgent care.

How we built it

We built it using react and python, we used python with flask for the backend and react with axios for the frontend. We also used firebase as our data storage and google authenticator.

Challenges we ran into

Gemini was quite different then openai's api so relearning it was a massive challenge alongside making all of the firebase stuff work with the bot itself, the bot also was extremely rude at the beginning and would not conversate well at all. It also at one point just repeated everything we said for some reason but ultimately these issues were mostly flattened.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of the fact that we were able to complete the project a bit before the time was up so we can practice our presentation and make sure we are prepared for what comes next. We also hand made all of the assets for the project so our logo's and mascot are all original for this hackathon.

What we learned

We learned how to make a appealing and user-friendly front end while also using gemini for the first time.

What's next for Local Cleric

Upscaling and fixing the last of the more annoying smaller issues, adding dynamic location setting using geocoding api from google, deploying on mobile, and making actual notifications for the calendar itself rather then it standing on its own.
