Inspiration
Sparknotes and REDDIT
How it works
Mongo database holds books and comments that reference lines, and these comments/notes have ratings and all sorts of other data to allow the comments only to show up when you're looking at the passage they reference!
Challenges I ran into
Trying to learn all of the front-end/back-end tools needed for this project, and deploying it to the internet (we spent around 2 hours trying to get it up on azure, to no avail)
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Having a website!
What I learned
There're lots of tools out there, and they all have their own special way of failing and destroying your hopes and dreams
What's next for Reddit5Books
Making it work more efficiently, and look prettier!
