Inspiration
Professors giving note-intensive lectures and it taking forever to transcribe all the notes
What it does
Converts a pdf of a presentation to a docx file where the images of the slides automatically are placed so you can take notes on each slide
How I built it
An apache web server on a linode instance running the Python library Flask
Challenges I ran into
We have never worked with Python Flask before and that proved to be a huge hurtle
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We all learned so much along the way
What I learned
Web development is quite difficult
What's next for slides2notes
Hopefully making it work and after that more output types other than docx such as latex
