Inspiration

Our team was divided by four ideas. After getting feedback from our kind mentors helping out at HopHacks, we decided to stick to one and fine tuned it. We were all able to build up on that idea into something we were truly passionate about.

What it does

With a click of one button, you are able to notify your friends of your location. Furthermore, you are able to see where your friends have been and how many friends or people are at a certain location.

How I built it

We designed a mobile web application using Bootstrap, HTML5, CSS3, Javascript, node.js, jQuery and Parse.

Challenges I ran into

Delegating work, debugging, scaling down our idea into something feasible for a hackathon

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Coming together to form a cohesive idea that could improve people's lives and relationships.

What I learned

Real-world programming! And the importance of prioritization.

What's next for Pinpoint

Development of a mobile phone application and additional features.
