Inspiration

Our inspiration stemmed from the idea of creating ai-generated, rockstar nfts. Since that idea wasn't sustainable for the expertise that we posessed, we did the next best thing. We made an app where users can assemble their favorite band from a collection of ai-generated, rockstar avatars.

What it does

Users have the opportunity to answer questions related to their favorite songs and spend their Rockstar Coins on Rockstar Packs of varrying rarity. More expensive packs have a better chance of giving the user cards of higher rarity. Once the user collects enough musicians, they can assemble a band of the best!

How we built it

We spent the majority of our time developing the app in Xcode while occassionally utilizing Cursor to break through some walls. We had one person that was our main developer and the two others handled crucial design and functionality tasks.

Challenges we ran into

While attempting to access some apis, we realized that the api either didn't have the data we needed, or that we were trying to access features through deprecated methods. There were many times where we went back to the drawing board.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This is our first hackathon, not just as a team, but as three individuals that have never competed in a hackathon until now. We began the first night of the hackathon lost and a little intimidated, we didn't think we'd even have a project to submit. But writing this now, we're proud to say that we completed our very first hackathon and didn't earn a DNF.

What we learned

We learned that no-matter how lost we may seem on day 1, there is still an opportunity to pull through for day 2. We're really excited to experience the final ceramony, just to see what kind of competition we were up against.

What's next for Rockstar Band Builder

As of right now, probably retirement. But, maybe one day there will come a time where we need a code snippit from it for another project we're working on.
