What it does

A decentralized counter app that keeps count of the number of dogs and the number of cats in a batch of uploaded pictures.

How we built it-

This program is an entry to the MLH Fellowship Orientation Hackathon. It runs on a Solana smart contract written with the Anchor framework in Rust and Javascript + React for the frontend.

It takes a link to the picture in the frontend, identifies the number of dogs and cats in the picture using code written in Tensorflow.js, and sends the results to the Rust backend. The backend code iteratively updates its own dog count and cat count values each time and displays the count to the user.

Challenges we ran into

The main problem we had was to connect the frontend with the AI were also be functional with the smart contract

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We learned a lot about Anchor framework and how to deploy Solana Smart Contracts :D

Create our first functional smart contract

What we learned

We learned how to use Anchor in more detail
