Inspiration

Sometimes it's best not to gatekeep. We believe it's best to share good things with the world, so we built Spotr to share the best parts in our community to visit.

What it does

Spotr allows users to post and view niche spots to visit within the community. Whether it be hiking trails, lookout spots, or cool areas to visit, Spotr allows you to be more connected with your environment.

How we built it

We used Firebase for the backend to store user data and places, a Google Maps API to build an interactive map, and a React-based frontend to handle client side actions.

Challenges we ran into

Learning the capabilities of new tools like Firebase and Google Maps API. ALSO A TWO MAN TEAM

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Making a fully functional end to end project.

What we learned

Learning new things is hard

What's next for Spotr

Hopefully we get to integrate an LLM like Gemini to help recommend user travel itineraries.
