Sharking Sharks

Inspiration

The theme given by MLH and the fact that I did not know about sharks at the first place motivated me to build something that could teach me and folks like me who have no idea about sharks a few things, through facts and jokes or through a kind of game

What it does

How we built it

I build it using Flutter. I planned on using Firebase as the backend for collecting facts and jokes but just couldn't get enough time to integrate it.

Challenges we ran into

The biggest of all challenges I ran into was getting the Google Maps API and integrating it into the app. But final could do it after a lot of struggle, but couldn't integrate the user's current location part.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Could put down the idea as ideated in the start, and learned a lot of things that otherwise wouldn't have been possible. Really proud of the work that I did in the past 2 days, from ideating to designing the UI to developing it all alone. Super proud of the way I handled stress and sleepless body strains.

What we learned

I learned how to call the APIs. How to create a Google Maps API. Generating the type of shark based on the answers. How to create a form and call for an error if the text fields are empty. Navigating and Routing through the app. And yes how to create an APK of the developed app

What's next for Sharking Sharks

Hosting the application is next for Sharking Sharks. Along with building an accurate ML model which would make the game more interesting and realistic. Changing the UI a bit and including a few shark images to make it interesting.
