Our inspiration was the technologies that we have been learning and using during this semester.
Our website allows veterans to find any resources they may need after being discharged. We help overwhelmed an confused veterans find what they need through a central repository. We used maps to give veterans a look at local resources, and used forms and interfaces to assist them with their information while suggesting resources available for them based on their situations.
We built it using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Jquery, bootstrap, and google-maps-api.
This was our first hackathon so we had to learn how everyone could contribute to the project, and how we should manage our time through different stages of the process.
This was our first hackathon so we really had to just dive into the process.
We learned how we should manage our time, what steps need more development then others, and how we can all use each other as resources.
With future updates using an Agile framework, we will add more features to the application to improve functionality, and overall performance to the site. This will further allow the veterans to utilize the central repository and be able to easily find what programs they are eligible for and where they can find the resources.
