This is our first Hackathon!
Inspiration
We wanted to create a project that would be useful to college students. All of us have experienced that living alone for the first time is difficult especially when you have to make your own meals. That is why we decided to create The College Cookbook.
What it does
The College Cookbook generates random recipes for the user or based on an ingredient.
How we built it
We used TheMealDB to get the data to use in our website. We then combined HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Datatables to create the project.
Challenges we ran into
None of us have been in a Hackathon before, so it was a new experience. We also ran into some difficulty combining the front and backend. We also had to learn a lot of new languages.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are very proud of ourselves for learning so much quickly and working with languages we haven't used before.
What we learned
We learned many new languages. We also learned what a Hackathon is and how to compete in one.
What's next for The College Cookbook
Hopefully, we will be able to expand the number of ingredients that the user is able to search for.
