Salutem

Inspiration

COVID-19 has made it more difficult for many people to lead an active and healthy lifestyle as well as to interact with their healthcare providers to make sure they are staying healthy. This increases their chances of unknowingly developing prediabetes which is already common among American adults. Because type 2 diabetes is a serious and chronic condition that often follows prediabetes, I wanted to build a way to raise awareness of prediabetes so people could get early diagnoses and change their lifestyle to prevent type 2 diabetes.

What it does

My website provides information about prediabetes and lifestyle changes that can be implemented to potentially reverse it.

How I built it

I built the website using React.js.

Challenges I ran into

I wasn't able to finish researching the best changes to make to your diet if you are prediabetic or fitness tips. I also ran into a bug really close to the deadline so I wasn't able to find a solution.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I got a start to the website and learned more CSS as well as deployed my first React app to Firebase.

What's next for Salutem

I hope to finish the lifestyle changes section and finish up that part of the website as well as fix the bug with the nav bar. I also need to add in citations for my information.
