W 2nd place
Also, everything works I didn't think to show the upload feature in the recording.
Inspiration
I was inspired for this project when I was fixing my old laptop. When I looked into buying a replacement display, to my shock it costed almost as much as the device itself. When I researched deeper I found that many manufacturers didn't have replacement parts. I decided to fix this.
What it does
This is a online ecommerce platform that can evaluate your device and then help you sell it thus reducing e-waste and saving money
How we built it
I used React-Native expo to create the frontend and Firebase in the backend. I also used the OpenAI API for the device evaluation and the googlemaps api for location based services.
Challenges we ran into
This was my first time using firebase so I ran into a lot of problems.
Also my library for navigation(react-native-curved-bottom-bar) had not very good documentation.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Learning firebase
Making a multi paged react native app
Making something that works
What we learned
Using Firebase
Making a multi-page in react native
What's next for SustainableSwap
Contacting a "green" company for some kind of partnership and publish it on the app store.
I'm going for either 1st, 2nd, 3rd, Entrepreneurial Fellows Program (100) or Climate Category(in that order)
