Inspiration

Our inspiration came from a friend who created an API to generate new pictures of Shiba Inus in which we wanted to incorporate into our project. Since we are first-year students and had no previous experience using HTML to create websites, we set our original goal pretty low: add the API of dog images to the page. Once we accomplished that goal a lot faster than we anticipated, we were able to expand our website's features by incorporating more JavaScript and the use of more functions.

What it does

Our website allows you to generate new pictures of Shiba Inus till your heart's desire. Your favorite dog will bless you with a variety of inspiring phrases. Not enough? Kick it up a notch by changing the mode to fit your style!

How we built it

We built this website using WebStorm which is an application neither of us have used before. Using GitHub, we were able to work and learn different aspects of the new language and application then merge our work together.

Challenges we ran into

The biggest challenge was fetching the data from a website and connecting it to a button on our page to shuffle through each generated photo of a Shiba Inu.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud that we were able to self-teach ourselves how to use new programming languages as well as problem shoot issues on our own within 24 hours.

What we learned

We learned the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and how to use them in accordance with each other. We also learned how to use the new application with the help of Github and Git

What's next for Super Awesome Shiba Inu Website

The addition of more inspirational messages along with more modes to choose from. There will also be an updated look to give a more modern and sleeker finished look.

NOTE: In the video we weren't able to get the video to display the button due to the odd aspect ratio on our laptop. Also we accidentally applied for the social impact category, we only meant to apply for the Best "Useless Website"!
