wiki picki

Inspiration

Honestly I don't even remember at this point.

What it does

Queries wikia websites and does different things depending on them

Sonic Fan Character - Tries to match query to the closest character on the sonic fan character wikia or just gives you a random one. :)
Sausages - Queries sausage wikia and gives info
VTuber - gives a popular article on the Virtual Youtuber wikia website. Future applications: asking for specific types like 'is a gamer' and 'speaks german'

How we built it

Backend uses python and acceses the wikia API to get JSON objects, and does a bunch of parsing to get the info. Front end is Flask and jinja templates, minimalistic. thers also some html i think

Challenges we ran into

time
incompetence
why dont the vtuber and superpower wikias have getassimplejson methods or any search api functionality at all??? im so confused

Accomplishments that we're proud of

making a '''''''''website''''''' that is integrated
having a somewhat finished product
bringing the earnestness of sonic ocs and the joy of vtubers to the wider public. sausages are cool too
