Inspiration
We were inspired by the efforts of our fellow students in leading a more active lifestyle through attempting to get more steps.
What it does
Walkbound turns walking into a fun, action packed adventure! Turn your steps into XP, which is used to level up certain skills for your character! At the end of each week, you can join your friends to defeat a boss, reaping the rewards that you can use in your future step-ventures!
How we built it
We used SWIFT to program the client side code for the app, and used a combination of Supabase and PostgreSQL to create the backend, database, and authorization.
Challenges we ran into
We found it quite challenging to learn SWIFT, especially considering that the entire project was migrated from React Native to Swift in the last 6 hours of the hackathon.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud that we were able to create a fun and engaging social game that encourages walking, health, and an active lifestyle.
What we learned
We learned a great deal about Swift, time management, and PostgreSQL.
What's next for Walkbound
We plan to expand on the social aspects of Walkbound, making use of one's friend network for more engagement and fun competitive play.
