✨ Inspiration

  • Offer an alternative to the negativity of social media and headlines
  • Emulate physical media like magazines and newspapers
  • How events and shared interests bring people together

🔍 What it does

  • Shares a weekly dose of positive local news
  • Allows users to share their own stories
  • Fosters positivity and a stronger sense of community

🎨 How we built it

  • Wireframes and prototypes were designed in Figma
  • Graphics and mockups were designed in Ibispaintx and Photoshop

🧩 Challenges we ran into

  • Initial scope was too broad, and we had difficulty narrowing our ideas down during brainstorming

🏆 Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Transforming our original idea of physical media to a digital alternative with a newsletter
  • Our strong brand identity
  • The thorough user research and testing we were able to complete

💡 What we learned

  • How to conduct user research and apply the results from it
