Inspiration
The recent talk about mental health and it's importance inspired me to create a website which provides details about mental health.
What it does
The website provides details about mental illness, their sign and symptoms and how to deal with them. It also provides information to other people on how to help the mentally-ill people around them. It also provides helplines for the mentally ill people to contact.
How we built it
I made the structure of the website initially. Then i thought and made all the pages , then i searched various sites for data and at last i did the styling part.
Challenges we ran into
I am a beginner with some Knowledge of web development and this is my first hackathon, so the main challenge was to build a site in 24 hours and amidst that learn and apply the technologies . I ran into many bugs and errors but with the help of documentation, google search and the wonderful and helpful mentors I overcame them.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I am proud that i made a website in 24 hours and learned a lot while doing it. This experience has motivated me to learn more technologies and build more apps.
What we learned
I learned various aspects of Web developments, technologies , libraries to use and how to use them.
What's next for Till We Laugh Again
I have planned to add more functionality to the site, add more information to it about various other mental illness and conditions. I am also planning to connect the site with various NGO's, doctors and psychiatrists so that people can use the site to get information and help in a efficient and quick manner.
