⭐ Inspiration ⭐
In modern world, social media and the internet plays a very big role on how we perceive society, and how it actually works. It has both negative and positive impact. We wanted to focus on the positive sides, explore the potential it has and that's how we came up with voice-x, getting your voice heard right!
🌠 What it does 🌠
voice-x is a modern day application that focuses on civic engagement and empowers the greatness of crowdfunding and support of general citizens. voice-x lets you upvote campaigns of your choice, donate to the ones that are requiring money, create your own campaign and garner support from people from all over the world. We are keen on making the app as usable and to the point as possible. For that, we've kept a really sleek and simple User Interface where you can easily navigate through features and use the app efficiently.
🌟 How we built it 🌟
We built the web interface using the wsgi flask server, which has its front-end built using HTML and CSS, and is served with APIs and routes through python, with sqlite database to store all the campaign records. Moreover, we used Mage AI as a powerful tool that makes our app smarter, and restricts spam campaigns and senseless titles.
💫 Use of Mage AI 💫
We made use of categorization model of Mage AI, through which we trained a model to recognize spam posts. This works as a filter and blocks out spam entries. Accessing this model is done via post requests through flask app. Suprisingly, this process was way less tedious because of Mage AI.
✨ Challenges we ran into ✨
We ran into a couple of challenges including:-
- completing the project in time
- setting up the database properly
- getting appropriate resources and doing our study regarding the theme
⭐ Accomplishments that we're proud of ⭐
we're very proud of completing the project in time as well as making something really impactful and something that brings a change the way our society works and works in accordance with the needs of common citizens of the world.
🌠 What we learned 🌠
We learnt a lot throughout the hackathon including:-
- setting up sqlite database with flask
- importance of civic engagement
- using template inheritance in flask
🌟 What's next for voice-x 🌟
We're hoping to add multiple more features in voice-x, like:-
- making the AI more smart with multiple levels of prediction
- making the payment gateway working
- deploying the project on EC2
- working on launching it officially
