it identifies plants and uses gemini to generate a unique description every time, along with fun facts and history
## How we built it
using MIT App Inventor we created a UI and a way to send images to our backend server
the backend server, on replit, is made in python. it takes the images and uses Pl@ntNet's API to identify the plant and gemini to give some info about it
the server also sends back the data to the frontend app to display to the user
## Challenges we ran into
it was difficult to send an image over https using mit's app inventer
## Accomplishments that we're proud of
it works. that pretty big!
## What we learned
MIT app inventer is a quick and easy way to mock up apps
## What's next for PinPlant
user can select what info they want gemini to give about the identified plant
