Inspiration

The COVID - 19 Pandemic is likely to put Healthcare professionals working on the frontlines across the world in unprecedented situations, having to work long hours under extreme pressure.This could bring about a mental health crisis in the medical fraternity with the risk of developing anxiety, fear or depression.

Healthcare workers are saving lives and risking their own as they respond to the virus.We owe it to these Health heroes, who have put their passion and commitment to their jobs ahead of all else.Our goal is to appreciate & support those who are on the front lines and show them that the World cares about them.

What is Nette Geste ?

Nette Geste is a web application that allows you to express your appreciation to your local Healthcare heroes from the safety of your homes. The aim of the platform is to express appreciation for the great commitment of healthcare professionals, especially during these times of the COVID-19 crisis. It will also connects all the organizations/ individuals who want to offer specific deals to the medical fraternity to express their gratitude in the ''Deals'' page.

How we built it ?

The Front-End development of our Web app was accomplished through Vuejs and Vuetify UI library with VS Code as IDE and Git as version control.

Challenges we ran into

We had to learn how code in Vuejs from zero as none of us had developed a web application from scratch before. We weren't able to build and backend for our app as we spent way too much time trying to make the front-end presentable.

Accomplishments that we were proud of

We were able to coordinate well together remotely given that this our first time working together as a team. We accomplished our goal of making a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to show case our idea.

What we learned ?

Vuejs and Vuetify as well as how to effectively collaborate with each other remotely via Gitlab and Discord (from LRZ) Everything can be done if we put our minds into it

What's next for Nette Geste ?

As of now, the app doesn't have the functionality of uploading photos and videos yet as we didn't have time to build the back end but that would be our first goal if we were to continue on this project.

We also would like to integrate a map/location function for the app so that 'gesture givers' can help bring foods/grocery/essential items to their nearby healthcare workers.
