Inspiration
We enjoy a good old-fashioned hack that repurposes existing technology in an interesting way.
What it does
Secret Handshake allows users to upload images and text via our web app to our secure server, which uses OTP encryption to post their hashed files on a designated subreddit for storage until needed. Each file is identified by a unique key provided by the user, so users can access their files anywhere and from any device with internet connection as long as they remember their key.
How we built it
We used Go for server-side code and JavaScript for client-side, with React to design the web app.
Challenges we ran into
We basically had to learn network code for this project, so that was pretty challenging.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We learned network code! And Go! And finished a complete platform in under 36 hours!
What we learned
We learned basically everything about building a full-stack web app in Go and JS.
What's next for Secret Handshake
We'd love to implement a variety of file types so that Secret Handshake could actually become a feasible storage solution, capable of storing virtually any data the user wants stashed somewhere for safe keeping.
