Our project was inspired by the theme of this years bitcamp "Adventure Awaits"! The problem that we have seen in young adults today is that they are excited to go adventure to new places but they are uninformed. Also another problem that they face is even if they know where to go, often they feel scared to go by themselves. We decided to make an app that will allow young adults to see the best events in their area whether its a nightclub having an event, campus party, 5 v 5 basketball game, or a book club. Once you found where you want to go, we will then then use our algorithm based on your interests and what events you have gone to, to determine several options for friends we think you would want to go to the event with. Due to the social isolation and loneliness of Gen-Z post Covid 19, our generation is desperate from a way to help us all reconnect again. No more will young adults sit in their rooms unwillingly on a Friday night without anything to do or someone to spend it with. Introducing our app Venture.

We learned through this project that it is really hard to develop a figma design, and an app in 36 hours. We had to make a design, a backend, and a front end in such little time and it was very hard giving us a reality into what may be in we decide to pursue this in the future.

We built this project using React-Native, PostgreSQL, Django, CockroachDB Our video was made on expo We also made a slide on Google Slides

The biggest challenges we faced were on the coding end as we were not able to get as much done as we hoped to
