How we built

We use open source framework and designed it with Java, Shell and Perl.

Challenges we ran into

Navigating around the framework. Review java jframe and swing libraries. Sleep deprived. Working with the limited java graphics class, which build the majority of the framework, to build an interactive experience.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to finish our project on time. It works!!!

What we learned

The pro and cons of using framework. Depending on the framework and, it may help boots up the time to finish the project. The coder can focus more on the functionality of the framework rather than the layout designing part. However, if the framework is difficult to use and navigate then it can also slow down the project
