Inspiration

Many of us wanted a better experience for the schoolloop; we felt it could be used to do more.

What it does

This android app ports Schoolloop data into a more concise and appealing interface that will please most high-schoolers. We enhanced many of the basic features with the inclusion of a final grade calculator, a test score calculator, plus a better viewer for grades and assignments.

How I built it

We built it through android studio. Since most of us were beginners to developing android apps, we followed a couple of tutorials and began to learn the basics.

Challenges I ran into

Due to the fact that we were beginners, we did not understand many of the tools used to develop an app. As we encountered problems, we had to quickly research them online so that we could keep pace and not fall behind.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

In 24 hours, we learnt how to build an app from scratch, with little experience. Also, this product helps students of our age, so we are able to use it ourselves as well. Solving a problem we all had made sure that we were all passionate about it.

What I learned

We all learnt the basics of app building and how to collaborate within and outside our group to successfully achieve our goals.

What's next for SmartLoop

We hope to add a google calendar, an assignment/agenda, push notifications, and more. We plan to pursue this project even after this hackathon.

I helped code a lot of the basic functionalities of the app. The layouts and tabbed view were among the hardest to implement, and I worked mainly on those.

I helped in the inception of our idea to enhance the schooloop experience with out own app. With advice on styling using android studio and developing potential ways to port schooloop website data to excel, we could make the whole app more pleasing and efficient for the user. I also learned how to setup a server using Google firebase in hopes of implementing it into our design in the future.

During brainstorming, I initially thought of an enhanced schoolloop app for students to be able to use everywhere. During development, I helped work to develop the interface including the final grade calculator as well as the test grade calculator.

I mostly worked on the the back-end. I had to learn node js in 24 hours. I built a scraper that would take and sort all of the information that we would need for our app, and connected it to a fire base profile so the app can push and pull data from the database.
