RPL - Research, Plan, Learn

Inspiration

We wanted to make a reliable web app that can be a primary resource for people seeking to get a list of resources/plans to develop their skills in a subject.

What it does

On the landing page, the user is presented with buttons based on the subjects they are interested in seeing a list of resources/tips.

How we built it

This is a full-stack application using React for the client with Node.js and OpenAI API for the backend. The app is fully Dockerized, making it easy to spin up in any environment.

Challenges we ran into

Docker configuration, API access with OpenAI, Processing the response, setting up the server routes, formatting requests/responses

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Using containerizing on our own for the first time, calling from an AI API for the first time, using PicoCSS, working with new people

What we learned

Debugging and testing incrementally is important, start with the basics then go into more specifics, reading documentation is helpful
