Inspiration

We wanted to connect people who have wants or needs for small items or odd numbers of items with other people in a local community willing to give out those items. This is geared mostly towards densely populated areas as most people in those areas rarely know the people in their community and don't often ask them for help.

What it does

An example of this is when someone wants just a small handful of pecans for a brownie, instead of going to the store they can put a post up asking for pecans, or look for someone who is willing to give them pecans.

How we built it

We used HTML, Flask, and SQLite. HTML is used mainly for the front end to display info and gather info from the user. Flask is used as the server middleware to pull info from SQL and display it in HTML. Finally, SQL stores user data and post data.

Challenges we ran into

We struggled initially with how to structure the database and the structure of the app as we have little experience with how to structure and organize the front and backend. We neglected to apply CSS as we wanted to focus on a working product more than looks.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud to come up with the database and set up a basic web app that mostly functions as intended. We put together something functional in a time frame we did not expect to get much done in.
