Inspiration

I got the idea for this project in high school when I was coming up with web platform ideas to build. I never thought I'd actually pursue this idea.

What it does

Porcupine allows you to view and access a vast array of application code skeletons and templates.

How we built it

We built a frontend in Bootstrap and connected it to a MongoDB backend with Stitch. We were able to collaborate from separate computers using git.

Challenges we ran into

It was challenging learning how to use MongoDB Stitches instead of building a serverpiece (like we're used to). Once we found that out it was a matter of adjusting our designs to the functionality at hand.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The database integration and our voting system.

What we learned

How to integrate a database and how a database is structured. More about the git tool.

What's next for Porcupine
