  Messenger Experience

Inspiration

To simplify information flow of our events We have an edTech startup in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh and we always have some or the other events coming up all the time and we take a huge time trying to help students understand what the event is , and other details such as speakers and everyone else hence our main goal was to build a very simple experience that gives the most important details in the shortest amount of time.

What it does

The experience is pretty simple it helps you get basic understanding of our events basic details like Venue, Date and Time are there but in case required it can be extended to anything

How we built it

We leveraged the complete Messenger platform by FB and given that we had never used Node.Js the app is simple but we are proud of it. Because we learned Node.Js went through a lot of tutorials learnt a lot and finally arrived at our vision.

Challenges we ran into

WebHook configuration was the biggest challenge given that we had never worked on any NodeJs app though the documentation is straightforward it took us a good amount of time to figure that out.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Building the App in itself is an accomplishment we never thought we would be able to do that as we had 0 experience with Messenger bots and Node JS we did what we set out to

What we learned

NodeJs and Team Work as we rarely work on new technologies this was a great way to do that

What's next for Pinakulo Events

To build a more beautiful experience with images and everything but also to scale this and send this to our customers to get the feedback
