Inspiration
One of our team members was heading home one day after his exhausting after-school classes, to log into the app of his institute on his tablet, to wonder why there were so many apps performing similar functions, and so poorly. This encouraged him to make something which would help him and his fellow aspirants in their preparation.
What it does
How we built it
Prepto is a cross platform app (Android, iOS and Web) built in React Native. It runs on top of Google Cloud infrastructure. We’re using the Firebase Cloud SDK for JavaScript to handle multiple aspects of the app ranging from authentication and matchmaking to real time databases which provides the user a smooth and seamless experience.
When a user starts looking for a competitor, a new document is created in our ‘games’ collection, and when another user looks for a game in the same subject and topic, we match them with the other one. This matchmaking process is completely handled client-side, because of the amazing Firebase SDK.
Google Cloud allows Prepto to scale easily and reach the masses quickly, in an explosive time where people are increasingly looking to digitize their learning.
Challenges we ran into
The matchmaking system was finicky to implement, so it took us some time to get it going. Implementing different libraries and Firestore with React Native also posed some challenges.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud of the way we took an old and orthodox concept of classroom study and reinvented it to match the needs of today, where most of us isolated from everyone.
What we learned
We learnt how to use React Native to build a complete project from scratch and connect it with Google Cloud platform.
What's next for Prepto
We plan on taking it even further with detailed analysis for teachers, and adding even more type of questions and collaborating with educational institutions and creating a complete ecosystem for standardized testing.

Inspiration
I have seen many peoples who live in remote areas, who move from one city to another in case of job postings. These people don't know about availability of hospitals, clinics, medicals and verified doctors near to them. So, we have developed a platform where people can easily connect with verified doctors near to their area by searching for doctors on our platform based on location.
The people of remote areas even big city people don't know about the latest medical schemes provided by the government. So, they can't use these very crucial medical schemes for their own. Our project will aware all patients about government medical schemes with eligibility criteria.
Their are so many people who are handicapped and faced difficulty in going to the hospitals for regular checkup of basic body parameters. Our project have IoT based box (a wellness device), which will help patients to have their normal body parameters reading at their own home and they can share their readings with doctor.
What it does
This project is for all those peoples who live in remote areas, valleys, hills, for those who are often move from one city to anoher because of buisness meetings and other things. All these peoples do not know about the availability of doctors, hospitals, clinics near to them. Even in case of COVID-19, this software is best to search doctors, hospitals, medical shops and clinics near to them. On MEDI-BOOK, patient can search doctors based on location selected and specilization of doctors. The major advantage of this web application is that peoples can see Government provided Medical Schemes very easily. This feature is not available on any existing projects. This software also have chat system through which patient can send their symptoms, previous medical reports and readings from MEDI-BOX to the selected doctor of any country and doctor from their end can prescribe patient very easily. Patients can have their MEDI-BOX readings on this software. Pateints can book appointments of any doctor. One of the major feature of MEDI-BOOK is that it will show live tracking of COVID-19 cases and news on it for the sake of patients and every time new case occurs in the area of patient, he/she will get notification of it automatically. If we see on larger picture, this software will going to help a lot to the world if we launch it.
With this, we have a wellness device "THE MEDI-BOX" which is a small box that can be connected with an android application and measures the human body parameters which includes "BODY_TEMPERATURE, PULSE RATE, ECG, HEART BEAT" and also "LIVE READING OF POLLUTION, AREA TEMPERATURE and HUMIDITY" of the area in which patient is currently stay, to check whether the current environment is suitable for the pateint or not. This box is easy to carry. All the readings will automatically send to cloud, MEDI-BOX mobile application and MEDI-BOOK software and these details will shared with doctor. We are now working to convert this box into a wearable band.
How I built it
It is built using basic programming languages and backend languages. I used thingspeak cloud for medi-box data storage and mysql for medi-book data storage.
Challenges I ran into
Sending real time data to cloud, but I made it.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Patients now will be aware about medical schemes which they can use for their own welfare.
Patients can easily connect with verified doctors near to their area.
Patients can have their wellness checking at their own home very easily.
What I learned
How to gather all data and use of web scraping also.
What's next for Self Aware
We will work on it and we are working on turning the medi-box into a wearable band and adding more functionality to them.

Due to COVID-19, the whole world has realized the power of online learning and the impact it can have on students. Be it K-12 or higher education, virtual learning has become very important now. Teachers need to adapt and learn to get used to a new way of teaching their students.Apni Shiksha is a course management system that supports online learning and teaching. It allows professors to post grades, and assignments online.
What it does
A teacher upon registering is able to add registered students to the class. The teacher can then update the details of the students enrolled in the class. During the academic year a teacher can upload assignments for the students to complete. Apni Shiksha also has a built in attendance managment system.The teachers can keep a track of who attended the online classes on a daily basis. The teachers can also update the marks for the entire class after quizes from the online portal itself.The students can check their marks and attendance after logging in to the student portal. They can also upload their submissions to the portal. At the end of the academic year they can give feedback to their teachers.There is also a quizing system wherein teacher's can create their own quizes, they add multiple choice questions with correct answers, the students can take the quiz at the designated time and after the quiz is over, the students can see their own marks and after all the students have answered, the teachers can get a report of how well the students performed.
How we built it
Apni Kasksha is MERN stack application. The frontend is powered by React. The Frontend Components are buit using Material UI React.We use Redux for state managment for storing the marks and axios for making requests to the backend. NodeJS is used on the backend and Express is used as middleware.The NoSQL database used is MongoDB to define the Models. The code is properly structured using the MVC pattern.We use Multer to manage file uploads.
Challenges we ran into
Setting up Material UI with React
Learning Redux for state management
Deploying the full stack application to Heroku
Setting up MongoDB Atlas
Making the backend according to the MVC pattern
Defining relationships between different entities in the backend
While making the frontend like setting up theming and components using Material UI, Then there was the challenge of updation state with each event in the redux store
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we have built a decent enough web app, for effective management of student and teacher data.
What we learned
We learned how to build a full stack application with react, redux and nodejs and learned how to deploy the web app, We also learned how to add a custom domain name to our heroku app.
What's next for Apni Shiksha
We plan to improve the quizing system wherein teachers can design their own quizes for students and also use AI technologies to make it more effective. We also plan to improve the UI and add other useful features.

Inspiration
Throughout the last few months, our team has received our permits and begun driving for the first time. We are now able to experience how dangerous the roads and infrastructure are. With our eyes finally opened to such an understated and risky problem, we set out to help solve it using technology.
Car crashes remain the leading cause of death for people under 30, meaning it is incredibly critical to understand and attack this problem. Specifically, we were incredibly shocked to find out that during COVID-19, several states have found an increase in fatal car crashes. We noted that most technological solutions combating this problem focus on driver education and safety, and while this is incredibly important, we focused our efforts towards a less addressed approach.
Thus, we took a different approach from the common hackathon project.
Instead of creating an application meant for general use, we developed an application specifically for state and city governments. We plan to implement our software as part of a nationwide government plan to promote smarter designing of road infrastructure. Since governments often utilize outside developers to build applications, we believe our website fills a normally unoccupied niche, and projects like this should be encouraged in the hackathon community. However, we still made our website useful to normal drivers with useful features.
Thus, we developed PreDent, which analyzes road data through a machine learning algorithm to identify high-risk crash sites.
What it does
PreDent is a unique progressive web application that identifies the accident-prone areas of a city through machine learning. The core of our project is an ML model that inputs static features (speed limits, road signs, road curvature, traffic volume), weather (precipitation, temperature), human factors, and many other attributes to ultimately output a map of city roads with hotspots of where collisions are likely. Note that our demo shows the process, but because our model is incredibly complex and large, the only way for us to deploy our model is to get access to expensive, high-powered servers. Our model will work on any city’s dataset, but they would have to be collected or provided to us.
First, government officials can upload a csv file of their collected traffic data, which many
already
have in private storages. This file is uploaded to
Google Cloud
, and we then input it into our model. Once we finish processing their data, we notify them via email. Our model then outputs: 1) coordinates of crash sites 2) specific issues at each crash site, and 3) a heat map overview of the city. Additionally, using the model generated coordinates, we create an interactive map using the
Google Maps API
.
With this information at hand
, city designers can informatively improve their roads by determining where to fix roads, add additional signs, adjust speed limits, and more. This information is essential for promoting safer roads and infrastructure.
We also have a page for common drivers. Residents from partner cities can find a map with the hotspots of where crashes are likely. These heatmaps change based on an hourly basis and time of year to account for rush hours and temperature/weather. The common pedestrian or driver can also help improve the efficiency of our model by inputting data about crashes in their neighborhoods by interactively placing pins on the map, which we aggregate with already collected data using
Firebase
.
Lastly, we have a
Data Visualization
page, where we show our process of analyzing data and determining which factors are important. We show our exploratory data analysis process and visualizations of key attributes. We used
GeoPandas
and
Fiona
to render these images. Instead of just uploading plots and graphs, we rendered our data into real
dimensional visualizations
and maps.
How we built it
After numerous hours of wireframing, conceptualizing key features, and outlining tasks, we divided the challenge amongst ourselves by assigning Ishaan to developing the UI/UX, Adithya to connecting the
Firebase
backend, Ayaan to managing, training, and developing the ML model and creating heatmaps, and Viraaj to developing our map system and integrating our heatmaps.
We coded the entire app in 4 languages:
HTML, CSS, Javascript
, and
Python
(Python3 /iPython). Developing and optimizing our Geospatial-ML model was done through
Jupyter Notebook
and
AI-Fabric from UIPath
. We used
Javascript
to create our maps, and used
Google Cloud
to store our data. We hosted our website through
Netlify
and
Github
.
After reading documentation, we developed our model and tested it on open-sourced data from Utah roads (from Medium) and produced the heatmaps. We also created a web-scraper to collect data from state databases to create our training sets. We scraped weather and road infrastructure databases to add to our available data. We pinpointed thousands of crash sights as our positive samples, and randomly sampled for negatives from locations where crashes never occurred. We trained two models, a gradient boosting model and a neural network, and found that the gradient boosting model performed better. We documented all our progress in our
Jupyter Notebook
, which we recommend reading.
Challenges we ran into
The primary challenge that arose for us was training and deploying our model. It was incredibly difficult to find data; we only were able to find one publicly available dataset from Utah. In addition, since we have never created a geospatial-ML model, developing our model and creating maps with hotspots was our main challenge. We read lots of documentation to learn how frameworks like
ArcGis
work. While we were not able to deploy our model due to not having an affordable yet high-computation web server, we were able to make it functional regardless of the dataset, meaning as long as cities give us data, we can create heatmaps for them.
Accomplishments we are proud of
We are incredibly proud of how our team found a distinctive yet viable solution to revolutionize road development and driving. We are proud that we were able to develop one of our most advanced models so far, which was mostly possible through
UIPath
training. We are extremely proud of developing a solution that has never been previously considered or implemented in this setting and developing a working model.
What we learned
Our team found it incredibly fulfilling to use our Machine Learning knowledge in a way that could effectively assist governments in assessing roads and finding ways to make them safer, especially when there aren’t quick and effective ways to do so currently. Seeing how we could use our software engineering skills to impact people’s daily lives and safety was the highlight of our weekend.
From a software perspective, developing geospatial-models was our main focus this weekend. We learned how to effectively build models and generate descriptive heatmaps. We learned how to use great frameworks for ML such as
AI-Fabric from UIPath
. We grew our web development skills and polished our database skills.
What is next for PreDent
We believe that our application would be best implemented on a local and state government level. These governments are in charge of designing efficient and safe roads, and we believe that with the information they acquire through our models, they can take steps to improve roads and reduce risks of crashes.
In terms of our application, we would love to deploy the model on the web for automatic integration. Given that our current situation prevents us from buying a web server capable of running the model, we look forward to acquiring a web server that can process high level computation, which would automate our service.
Our Name
PreDent has a few different meanings, which we’ve listed out below:
“Pre” means prior to an accident
“Dent” refers to denting a car during an accident
“Dent” is also short for a car accident, which we try to avoid
“PreDent” is very similar to “prevent”, which is the primary goal of our system

We had the individual AI and Keylogger working, we were unfortunatley unable to combine them and thus there was no demo. To watch the individual demos for the AI and Keylogger you can go down to demo videos.
Inspiration
Every year thousands of people are diagnosed with Parkinson's. Many times its too late and their relatives are forced to watch as they become shells of the humans that they once were. The worst part is that Parkinson's is often difficult to detect and can be tricky to diagnose.
We wanted to create something that could help detect Parkinsons in a quick and efficent way, without being obtrusive or expensive.
Thus we present Cognito
What it does
Cognito is very simple
Cognito has a key logger which tracks specific typing metrics. Cognito stores these metrics which are then analyzed by an advanced AI algorithim which detects for signs of Parkinson's. If Cognito detects signs of the disease it will send an email alerting the user about the issue.
Cognito is a simple background script that doesn't need an internet connection and is simple and hassle free.
Cognito has plenty of potential as typing can not only be used for Parkinsons, but for many other dieases as well such as Huntington's and Alzheimer's Disease.
How we built it
We used the neuroQWERTY dataset and keras to develop an algorithm which detects whether or not a user has Parkinson's.
We then used python to develop a simple keylogger that tracks the metrics which the Algorithm will need to analyze.
Challenges we ran into
Developing the Algorithm was incredibly difficult. It took a lot of time and was difficult to debug. It was the group's first time working with numerical classification in AI.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we got the AI algorithm to work. It took a lot of time and effort, but it payed off!
We were also proud that we could detect such a deadly disease with such a simple metric... typing!
What we learned
We learned how AI works and how to use it and learned how to do key detection with python. For two thirds of the group it was their first time working with any sort of AI at all so this was a new and fun journey for all!
What's next for Cognito
We would like to develop our algorithm even further. Unfortunatley, Cognito has a 50% accuracy, however with the discovery of some new datasets and with the ability to spend more time with the Algorithim we feel confident that we could get the prediction to over 70%.
We then plan to release this so that we can start helping people all around the world!

Inspiration
The main problem we are focusing is the inability of differently abled people to communicate with normal people or other differently abled people. Now, we are here with the combined Hardware and Software solution which is called
“EME”
, after analysing some problems. And, try to make the next generation Support Device for differently abled people. (Deaf, mute & Blind)
What it does
There is a Hardware project which consists of a Hand Gesture Recognition and Smart Blind Stick. Smart Blind Stick for “Blind People”, in this when object comes near to 1 m than less, then, buzzer beeping with increasing in beep frequency as object comes closer, through way they get an Alert.
Hand Gesture Recognition for “Dumb People (or mute people)”, because they have their own sign language but normal people don’t know the sign language which is used for intercommunication between mute people. This system will be useful to solve this problem and help them to make their interaction easily with the people. They can communicate hassle-free by using this device & with the help of our app EME, we converted gesture pattern into text to Speech.
In our app, there so many specifications-
Speech to Text (for Deaf people, to understand other people communication)
Text to Speech (for Dumb people with bluetooth connectivity)
Text to Speech (for Normally use)
How we built it
In the Hardware of this project, Smart Blind Stick for “Blind People” using Adruino, Ultrasonic Sensor HC-SR04, IR Sensor & Buzzer to give alert and Hand Gesture Recognition for “Dumb People” using Arduino, Bluetooth HC 05, LDR Sensors & our app EME, through we convert gesture pattern into text to Speech.
We build our app on Flutter which is a hybrid platform using dart language. Because Flutter apps can run on ios and android devices. Then, Text to Speech with bluetooth connection and Speech to Text were implemented with our skills.
Challenges we ran into
Due to lockdown, we don’t have much hardware components. So, we try to figure out this with Arduino Uno and Bluetooth in specific time duration. Also, make an app with such functioning is new to us.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Working of Hand Gesture recognition is so efficiently and accurately. Also, make a this device very cheap around 13 USD. ( There some sensors in market whose cost around 30 USD each then for four fingers 120 USD with other components additional cost also)
And, converted Text to Speech & Speech to Text successfully.
What we learned
Learned a lot about that without having much components, how to make efficient project in hardware in specific time and also, learned about the new sensors.
Moreover, built a more functioning mobile app.
What's next for EME
In terms of enhancing the project, we can introduce Obstacle alert Helmet for Blind People using circular rotate sensor like a radar and with the help of Gyrometer in hand gesture, we can increase the limits of signs means able for whole sentence instead of common words.
In terms of marketing the product, we would like to initially target differently abled people center of our region.

HandRight - HackMann 2020 Project
Inspiration
We were inspired to create HandRight after witnessing the struggles of parents trying to teach their their kids how to handwrite words at home firsthand. COVID-19 has especially exacerbated these difficulties as teachers and educators are unable to meet with and teach young students due to the quarantine restrictions. And with parents working full-time, students find it hard to stay motivated and are not able to practice their handwriting skills. They are left alone and with no one to guide them first hand, they are sacrificing their learning. We wanted to help struggling students deal with global education crisis.
What it does
HandRight is a fun and captivating game that uses computer vision to help students practice their handwriting without the presence of parents or other mentors. Furthermore, HandRight offers 3 core features:
Allows students to write with real writing implements such as pens and pencils
Allows students to get instant feedback (the kind they can't get from their teachers during COVID-19)
Gamifies the process of handwriting by assigning scores and points, and a leaderboard, motivating students to practice
How We built it
We used:
Flask for the backend and for handling the serving of the documents.
HTML, CSS, Javascript for building an aesthetically-pleasing frontend.
Python as the primary language for the functionalities and backend.
OpenCV for Computer Vision and reading the video.
EAST deep learning text detector to locate text in the video.
Google Cloud Vision Text Recognition for reading the words on the paper.
Challenges We ran into
We struggled to find or create a good handwriting detection library. We went through many options, including pyteresseract and a TF1-based model till we settled on Google Cloud, which working incredibly well.
In addition, as shown in
our issue
, VSC's in-built terminal on a Mac doesn't ask for video permission, which causes it to abort. Lastly, time was definitely one of our largest problems. Due to the sheer amount of work that we had to do in this short time period, we had to organize ourselves really well and work non-stop.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We're proud that we were able to finally find a working handwriting-identification library. In addition, we were able to resolve the Abort Error issue, so our app was functional for all our team members. Finally, we're proud that we got the application functional and ready for potential use! Making a complex game with ml vision, a right/wrong functionality and a realtime leader board was very tough, but we persevered through it and are extremely proud of our final results.
What We learned
We learned about different OCR platforms, having experimented with many options. We also gained a lot more experience with Flask, learning how to link videos inside of Flask and have them operate at the same time as the app itself without causing problems. Not only did we learn a lot about programming, we also learned how to work together really well in a high pressured environment. Since this was a virtual hackathon, we had a lot of difficulty at the start keeping track of each other and what we were supposed to do. But then, we started assigning roles, keeping track of our project through discord and Range.cc (tools that none of us had experience with) and regularly talking with each other on discord. After that, our project began flowing much more smoothly and by the end, we were able to complete it!
What's next for HandRight
Next, we hope to clean the game up a little bit, then push it out to the public. In addition, we hope to insert an audio feature to have a student learn spelling as well. Finally, we hope to make the website more kid-friendly, inserting characters and music to make the website compelling to children.

We’ve all been there. Looking for teammates, reaching out to people that you’ve never even met before and asking them to join teams. But this entire process happens once you have registered for a hackathon and are in the discord server. It’s time consuming and ineffective as some people don’t respond, while others can’t respond for hours because of a huge time zone difference. You don’t want to be wasting time desperately dming people on the discord. You time needs to be used to do the actual hacking. This is where Devify comes in.
What it does
It's simple but it solves a major problem. Devify connects hackathon goers with others so that they can form teams before they even sign up for a hackathon. Best of all, it lets you easily pick who you want to work with and gives you their basic information such as: name, age, languages familiar with, experience level, past project links, time zone, and more. It’s basically an all-in-one package to find the perfect hackathon teammate without wasting any time. .
How I built it

Coding Languages
- HTML,CSS,Bootstrap,JavaScript
Challenges We ran into
Working remotely was a burdensome challenge for us because we could not coordinate as well as if we were working together in person. To keep up to date, we needed to communicate effectively via Discord.
Since so many different individuals were working on the project simultaenously, it was a challenge to keep our app look ing cohesive and concise. To mantain a consistent style, we made mocks up of our app utilizing Figma before we began coding. This enabled all of us to be on the same page.
Getting our domain to work on all of our computers
Accomplishments that we are proud of
Overcoming the above challenges was our biggest accomplishment.
Utilizing the knowledge we gained from the workshops to create our application.
Being able to work together and produce something despite our major time zone differences and limited time.
Being able to bring all of our unique educational backgrounds to produce a product.
Learning that this is a novel idea that others have not created before.
What We learned
We learned how to work together with differing skill sets
What's next for Devify
Devify is a product that undoubtedly has a niche market that will want this product. But before we launch this project on a global scale, we are refining a few things here and there to make the project as use-friendly as possible.
Once the project is refined we would like to pitch the idea to the founder of Devpost.

The COVID-19 pandemic has completely changed the way we live our lives. Entertainment and fun have not been of the utmost concern given the current situation. We are all bored at home and need something to pass time with. This game was created to invoke some sort of nostalgia in you and work your brains. We wanted to bring some 3d augmented reality fun to you.
What it does
This simulation uses unity and echoAR to develop a memory game. A user can select different boxes and unveil what is underneath. They have to remember the location of certain objects and which boxes they are underneath, so they are forced to use their brains during quarantine. Sucks, right?. The user needs to determine which boxes have the same object underneath till they guess all 15 pairs correctly. This program was originally intended to be created using augmented reality so that the user could play the game wherever they are from their phone. However, due to an unforeseen error, this interface could not be translated to a mobile phone to implement the AR for the user to use. We can assure you that we tried for a long time, but sadly, it did not work. This program uses models from echoAR, and hypothetically it should be possible to view them from your phone.

We can assure you that we tried for a long time, but sadly, it did not work. This program uses models from echoAR, and hypothetically it should be possible to view them from your phone.
Challenges we ran into
Challenges we faced were working with the echoAR console/interface and importing those 3D objects into Unity. The ARFoundation pack was tough to figure out, and we could never “build and run” our program in order for it to be compatible with our phones. Another issue we ran into was implementing the AR for the user’s phone. After hours of research, we were still not able to find a fix and were not able to achieve what we initially hoped to do. We believe our game would have been much better if AR was incorporated.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Our team is proud of submitting something for this hackathon. We were happy to improve upon our Unity and echoAR skills. We are proud to have been able to work with such new and improving technology.
What we learned
We learned about the various uses of augmented and virtual reality. EchoAR is our first experience to create AR/VR apps and games. We were exposed to many more aspects of computer science and development. It has also let us know that we should be more prepared and organized as we ran into quite a few problems.
What's next for Memory Match
Not being able to incorporate the AR aspect of echoAR into our project lowered our expectations of what our final project should be. We want to be able to let the user see the 3d objects on their floor, table, or wherever. Also, we want to try to make the models in the game interactable with. We are all hoping that next time, we can incorporate echoAR to create bigger and better projects.

My parents have frequently run into situations where they were unable to buy essential items because the massive demand for the products lead to them being sold out within a few hours.
What it does
This product allows users to track certain amazon products (support for other sites coming in the future), and sends then an email whenever the product is in stock.
How I built it
I utilized AWS as my main backend. The API communicates with the HTML frontend.
Challenges I ran into
AWS is difficult to get started with, and the steep learning curve meant I wasn't able to complete everything. I also started late due to other work, so I didn't have as much time.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I'm proud of how much I managed to accomplish, and I am proud of the website design. I'm not the most artistically talented, but this is probably the best website I've made so far.
What I learned
I learned a lot about utilizing AWS for backend development, and I will definitely use it more in the future. I also increased my HTML skills.

Inspiration
The inspiration for the project was to help out the society and agriculture sector.
What happened was I was listening to the prime minister of India Talk in his interview recently and he said that we need To try to help our agriculture sector that is the backbone of the Indian Economy.
What it does
We built a webpage where we can perform a live detection of plant leaf diseases.
How I built it
For this I acquired the data from a Webiste named PlantVillage which had a data of 9K images of 33 different plants
then i made a model using Keras CNN i used google colabs to Train the model
Link to the model
https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1CsPXjFyFnBwWM28xSSREJ3Z3ncev7Ucn?usp=sharing
this model had a accuracy of around 98%
then i Integrated this Model with Flask and opencv to perform Live detection of images
Then i made use of pandas to integrate Results on the protection like What is this disease,How , any organic controls that could be performed and more.
Challenges I ran into

10,206 | https://devpost.com/software/walkingtree | What is WalkingTree?
Have you ever wanted to reduce your own carbon footprint? Or desired an app that encourages walking? Well, WalkingTree is just for you! Amply and uncreatively named, WalkingTree is an iOS application that would allow a user (that's you) to earn "leaves" that can then be added onto an initially bare tree. In order to gain leaves, the user would have to walk a certain amount of steps (our idea was 10,000).
Other possible features would include the ability for the user to select leaf placement on the tree and selecting what type of leaf they would like to add.
Implementation
In terms of working code, WalkingTree can only add a random leaf to a random location surrounding the tree. Each leaf element is stored persistently using CoreData.* Constraints were also added to main application images in order to allow for greater device capability.
There is also some code to assist with the implementation of storing and reading user data (such as how many leaves the user has stored up and still need to add, how many steps has the user taken in the lifetime of using the application, and the number of leaves that the user has gained overall) and the usage of CoreMotion for recording user steps, however, we were not able to finish this in the time allotted for the hackathon. This was partly in due to not realizing that we forgot to include an import statement for CoreData. We also tried to use CocaPods third party libraries but scrapped the idea due to time constraints and learning curve.
Swift online help and documentation did not feel as helpful as documentation for other languages (like Python or C), but it was more that we had to get used to the format of how information was presented. For example, it was difficult to discern if a function found in the documentation requires importing certain modules, but generally the webpage path of the function documentation gave good clues to as to what should be imported.
Overall, we were able to learn how to use Swift and Xcode for the first time and see some of the libraries and support that Swift had to offer.
*It is important to note that while programmatically each leaf is stored, we have not implemented checking this storage at app start-up in order to load up previously added leaves. In other words, leaves are stored and saved, but not reloaded back into the app view.

Corona Virus Outbreak made the world slower than usual. Students would suffer more because of lockdown in the countries, schools are shut and students have no other source than learning online. We decided to improve online learning and education by making a project called EduQuix. Also our project focus on home delivery of school essentials.
What it does
Some of the features are listed below:-
It asks students and teachers to sign up or login. After that, it provides the students zoom url to join the online meeting, teachers has to start their own meeting and has to upload the meeting ID and password to the website server so the students may join.
After the meeting ends, the students has to solve quiz related to the class which will automatically give them grades according to their performance. Teachers get excess to upload the quiz.
Teachers may assign students projects or assignments using this platform and students can submit their work before the deadline.
Also this project enables users the access to order school essentials like books, pens and other stationery online through it.
How I built it
The delivery part was built using wix.com's theme and by modifying it into stationery store website
Quiz page was made using Wolfram Techologies
Rest of the complete website was made using Bootstrap Studio by integrating website with, Zoom for the meetings, Firebase to get the meeting ID and password for the Zoom meeting and then linking the main site with the delivery site made through wix.
Challenges I ran into
All the teammates belonged to different countries, So the time zone created a major problem for us to collaborate but we divided the work and every teammate completed its work on time.
I was new to Wix.com, so it was time consumable to understand it and make a working website.
One of my teammate was new to firebase. So, it was difficult for him to work with that but he got to learn about firebase and how to use it. It was time consuming but helping each other made the work easier
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I got to learn about website development because it was my first time making a website
I got to learn integrating firebase to websites.
I was a beginner to bootstrap but now I have enough knowledge to make a website work using bootstrap
What I learned
Team Work is a great thing I got to learn by working with people belonging to different parts of the world.
I was new to website development. So I got to know more about website development using bootstrap and wix.com
I used to integrate mobile apps with firebase but this project gave me an opportunity to learn about integrating websites with firebase.
What's next for EduQuix
In future, we plan to make an android app so it would be easier for everyone to use it even for them who don't own a computer or a laptop.
We would try to add notification pannel in the project through which students may get aware of emergency updates like if class gets postponed or gets canceled.
We would try to improve assignment part and quiz part so that students may get amazing experience related to the class they attended.
We can tie up with local stationery stores to provide users same day delivery.

Inspiration
We can see coding stealing everywhere and that's not for the good of computing, for sure !
This is why I have built Don'tStealMyCode framework !
What it does
dsmc is a module, console, program and web-based application which allow you to encrypt a decrypt code of whatever files encoded with utf8 and python-readable !
The module
allows you to use the program to code others programs, so the possibilities are numerous.
The console program
is to help you quickly encrypt and decrypt your programs or files.
The web application
is hosted on Heroku and encrypts and decrypts very easily the code you submit and allow you to download it or read it online if it's allowed by the browser.
How I built it
First of all, having the idea to develop dsmc, I have developed the console module in python and some bash ( the all backend ).
Secondly, I have learnt Heroku serving with Flask in order to submit my work on Heroku.
Then, I have developed the frontend in Html, Css, Javascript with the help of FontsAwesome and Google Fonts.
After that, building the controllers was a little hard because of non-matching for example between Dropzonejs and Flask. In this way, I was obliged to build my self dropzone model in pure Css ! The other problem at this state was that I wasn't able to import my local module. So, I completed the remaining tasks to submit my module to Pypi and then be able to install and import it in Flask as a requirement.
Finally, it was it ! All things were pretty good after correcting some of the remaining bugs !
Challenges I ran into
Developing a full dropzone system in pure vanillajs
Developing all this features in 24hours
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I am proud of the challenges I have met
What I learned
Flask hosting on Heroku
Python packages good development way
What's next for DontStealMyCode - console & web code encrypter & decrypter
I think that this dsmc can be very useful for many persons, maybe enterprises if it's improved seriously and may become a reference (with the fonctionnal two factors algorithms I have developed for that) in the domains of the cryptography !

Inspiration
As fellow students, we have firsthand experience with the struggles of trying to keep up with fast-paced lectures. Students are trying to take detailed notes that they can use to study and review while also trying to pay attention to the lecture and understand the key concepts. It is difficult to get down all of the information with this kind of stress, and students often return from lectures with incomplete notes that they are not able to understand because they were not able to learn much during their time in the lecture. We realized that the best way to learn efficiently is to pay attention to what the lecturer is saying and observe the visuals during the lecture so that when you leave the lecture, you are able to further review and study on your own with some basic understanding of the concepts. However, this isn’t ideal because you leave the lecture without any notes. We tried taking audio recordings of the lecture so that we could refer to it later, but that was time-consuming as we would have to listen to the entire lecture again in order to review. This inspired us to create LectureLine, so that students are able to learn as efficiently as possible by paying attention during lectures and reviewing information with the LectureLine notes.
It’s not just us! Students across the globe struggle with note-taking and the lack of absorption in fast-paced lectures. A recent study demonstrated that 72% of students have difficulty in taking adequate notes and can’t record information fast enough. After conducting a survey of 96 individuals this weekend, we discovered that 83.3% had a heavy increase in self-learning due to COVID-19, 90.6% felt rushed in lectures, and an overwhelming 92.7% said that they would love to see an application that creates notes in real-time and adds resources.
What it does
LectureLine is a clean and efficient mobile application that revolutionizes the process of notetaking with real-time transcription and summarization with links and visuals. Features of LectureLine include fluid note-to-note linking, real-time transcription, compatibility across all devices, notes storage and organization, and offline capabilities.
The application utilizes the process of real-time transcription, but also contains the feature of summarizing the information into bullet points that capture key points and concepts, which none of its competitors include. This is vital in crafting efficient and easy-to-study notes that are more helpful for students in high-stress situations. The application goes far beyond the simple transcription and summary. Along with this recording and transcribing process, the application detects and categorizes key terms and concepts in order to generate images and visuals that may help the student. Along with visuals as a resource, the application will also take these key concepts and display helpful links and resources in order to allow the student to delve deeper and explore the concept further.
How we built it
Using Framer, we developed a virtual prototype that demonstrates the UI/UX aspect of LectureLine. This includes a clear process of how the mobile application works, and what the desired interface of LectureLine looks like. Along with simply demonstrating the interface of note-taking, our virtual prototype shows a clear demonstration of how an individual can create an account, organize and store their notes, and change their type of subscription. Small and desired features that we hope to implement in the future are also included to display the full workings of LectureLine.
Additionally, we created a code demo as a proof of concept for LectureLine. This program, written in Python, utilizes the user’s device’s microphone to listen for information and then transcribes it into written notes. The program then identifies the key concepts of what the speaker is saying through natural language processing and includes links and images into the notes. Then, the user can save their notes onto their own device.
Challenges we ran into
Due to the time pressure of this project, we were not able to include all desired aspects of LectureLine into our prototype. Although our code demo demonstrates the basic workings of our product, we hope to fully implement these desired features in the future with more time. One of the biggest challenges we faced was incorporating the use of punctuation into our transcribed notes. It became difficult to analyze verbal diction in order to process punctuation and capitalization. To overcome this challenge, we utilized source code for punctuation and were able to adapt it into our situation and program.
Additionally, we were hoping to incorporate more features into our prototypes such as offline capabilities, note-to-note linking, and textbook recommendations. With more time, we hope to incorporate these features, as well as machine learning so that the app would, over time, be able to recognize a voice and adapt to the accent and speaking style in order to make more accurate notes. We also plan on using machine learning and natural language processing so that LectureLine can identify the subject of a lecture and take more precise and helpful notes based on the subject (for example: in science subjects, LectureLine would include more labeled diagrams).
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Although we had little experience in Python and natural language processing as a team, we were able to work together in order to understand these concepts. We are extremely proud of our working project and the new concepts we were able to learn. In order to incorporate these new concepts, we conducted a lot of research and went through a lot of trial and error.
Additionally, this was our first time using Framer to prototype our mobile application, and we feel accomplished with the professionalism and efficiency of our given model. Although we felt pressured under time, we are super excited to showcase our working prototype and code demo!
Another thing that we are proud of is our business plan and slides. We did our best to create professional and clean materials that showcase our company, product ideas, and strategies.
What we learned
During this process, we were able to learn a lot about emerging technologies such as natural language processing in Python and how they can be implemented into a situation as basic as note-taking. We also conducted research on efficient learning and note-taking strategies in order to maximize the potential of our product, so we were able to learn about how we can improve our own habits and hopefully help others as well!
We experimented and learned the use of UI/UX design as well as the importance of market analysis, which allowed us to better improve LectureLine in comparison to our competitors. Most importantly, we learned the importance of time management and efficiency, which allowed us to successfully complete this project!
What's next for LectureLine
LectureLine is a mobile application as of now, but we plan to expand to browser extensions and other technologies in order to increase compatibility. This provides the user with much more accessibility, as they can use any device to access its features. We hope to partner with educational institutions, such as schools and universities, in order to reach a larger portion of our main target consumers, students. The team will run various marketing strategies and promotions on numerous websites and university platforms in order to promote the use of this time-efficient and user-friendly product.
LectureLine also has the potential to benefit working professionals, and we plan to maximize that potential through an additional work industry version. This version of LectureLine would have features that are specific to taking notes for meetings and informational sessions. For example, LectureLine would take notes during a meeting and automatically send those notes to meeting participants in order to ensure that everyone is on the same page and that there is no confusion. Through further development, LectureLine would be able to create timelines and assign tasks to individuals based on meeting notes.
Further down the road, the LectureLine team hopes to provide new developments and features in order to increase the productivity and efficiency of our application. For further development of LectureLine, technologies such as natural language processing and machine learning will further be implemented to maximize the functions of LectureLine. This includes textbook recommendations, access to multiple languages, and browser compatibility. Additional features will be added as well, such as saving and condensing the lecture audio by increasing the speed and reducing the time when the lecturer is not speaking so that users may listen to it efficiently.

Inspiration
In COVID-19 pandemic people are quarantined but they still have to be in queues at different locations, such as doctor’s offices or in supermarkets which is not the best practice to avoid COVID-19 pandemic. Social distancing is the best way to protect yourself and others from COVID-19 infections. However, avoiding crowds in waiting rooms is not easy.
The challenge of “social distancing” and waiting lines has not been a relevant use case in the past. Our services solve these problems brought forward by the pandemic: Exchanging resources, stop unnecessary queueing, and overcrowding.
What it does
I wanted to create an easy to use and understandable system/service which could be used to avoid the unnecessary crowd.
It is very important that I create a very easy platform to use which could be developed and implemented within two weeks or so. This pandemic we saw how people are facing difficulties to get things done. We have also seen many situations where the government was not sure whether they should implement/increase the lockdown. Social distancing is one of the best ways of protection against COVID-19 infections.
Our vision is to let the user exchange services such as going to the market, visiting the doctors for appointments, and many more.
Users can create a request for service that they want such as the requirement of the food supply. The request will be visible on the request list of the local area (3 km radius). All the users of that local area would be able to see the request. The request can be full filled by another user who is able to do the job.
After completing a particular request the user who full filled the request will receive coins from the user who created the request. The number of coins received will depend on the request. Users can also cash the coins if wanted.
Users can buy more coins if they are out of coins and want to make more requests. This will not only decrease unnecessary crowding and violation of social distancing but also will help the local business to function properly during the pandemic period.
Use Cases:
Let’s say a user ‘X’ creates a request for a food supply. The request will be visible in the request list of the local area. Let’s say another user ‘Y’ of that local area was near a market and notices the request. He could full fill the request made by the user ‘X’ by buying the food and delivering it to the user ‘X’.
2. Let’s say user ‘X’ creates a request for a local doctors ‘Y’ appointment. Let’s also assume that doctor ‘Y’ is also a user. Then doctor ‘Y’ could full fill the request and call the patient i.e user ‘X’ whenever he fill free.
How I built it
Since the app is created with user-centered design in mind so, I started with the sketch of the app. After completing the basic sketch. I started deciding responses of the APIs that I would use in the iOS app. Once the responses were decided, I started creating the actual APIs using Python and Flask. After the APIs were completed I deployed the server app on Heroku and tested if everything is working as expected.
After completing the server app I started creating the UI using the storyboard of Xcode. Once all the UI was completed using dummy data I integrated the APIs that were created earlier and were deployed on Heroku. Then I test the app for any possible bug and fixed it.
Challenges I ran into
The main challenge was the user-centered design. As the app was made from a user point of view. It was very important that the app was easy to use and understand.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
The system could really be used in the real world as it solves one of the real-world current problems. This system could also produce new opportunities for local business to reach their customer.
What I learned
I learned a lot about database and backend.
What's next for Deliver Safe
There are many things to be improved:
The users will be able to buy coins that will be implemented using ethereum cryptocurrency.
I also want that along with the exchange service, the system should also monitor each user's daily activity i.e the number of people they are interacting to get their request done, to provide them and the government the necessary data about the condition of the locality.
This will not only decrease unnecessary crowding but also will increase the local business. Also, the government and users will get proper data on the condition of the locality which will help them in taking better decisions regarding the pandemic.

10,206 | https://devpost.com/software/interstellar-hpiyzj | Inspiration
Manned space programs from around the world have led to hundreds of spin-off inventions used to improve our everyday lives. Science education is absolutely vital to continuing this progress. Unfortunately, COVID-19 and the lockdowns used to combat it have closed science centers, museums, and schools all over the world, depriving millions of children of valuable (and potentially life-changing) educational experiences.
That’s why I built InterstellAR. I wanted to encourage today’s students to grow into the scientists of tomorrow. I wanted to show them the majesty and grandeur of the cosmos in a way they can’t get from books and ordinary videos. So I created InterstellAR to fuel students’ imaginations by bringing astronomy to life with augmented reality!
What it does
InterstellAR provides users of all ages with an interactive way to learn more about space from the comfort and safety of their own homes. By combining pictures, text, and 3D models, InterstellAR lets users experience a unique learning experience that can’t be recreated with traditional media like articles, books, and videos.
How I built it
I wanted to make sure that anyone could access InterstellAR without needing to acquire specialized hardware or software, so I decided to make InterstellAR as a web app. Also, I figured that most of InterstellAR’s users would be on phones or other mobile devices, so I decided to make my website using React and Material UI because they already have many responsive features built in. I also used EchoAR to store and deliver the 3D models.
Challenges I ran into
This was my first time using AR, so one of the hardest parts for me was determining which platform I could use with my device. I wanted the end product to be a simple website app so that anyone could use InterstellAR without needing to download any specialized software. I spent a lot of time trying different AR solutions to find the one that was the easiest to use, was rendered in large scale, and was the most accessible.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I’m really proud of how the end product turned out! I’m not super experienced with React, so this was the first “real” website I’ve ever built with it, and I really like the end result! I’m also super proud of how the AR turned out! I think it looks really cool, and creates a great experience for the user.
What's next for InterstellAR
In the future, I would like to expand the 3D model library by adding more planets, spaceships, shuttles, etc. I would also like to add interactive learning activities, such as Trivia Fun Facts, quizzes, etc.

10,206 | https://devpost.com/software/c-care | When our app worked, Satisfied
Inspiration
During this current COVID 19 pandemic, I see health worker is curing the patients, doctors are innovating new medicine, the police is controlling the crowd movement and even bus drivers are helping people to get back to home. As a future engineer, I felt like my contribution is none, so I felt motivated to do my part and try to bring a positive change and to make sure my product can also be used in a future pandemic.
problem our project solves
Offices and workplaces are opening up and as the lockdown loosen we have to get back to work, but there is a massive possibility that infection can spread in our workplace as, When a person is infected he can be asymptomatic for up to 21 days and still be contagious, so the only way to contain the spread is by wearing a mask and maintaining hand hygiene. WHO and CDC report said that if everyone wears a mask and maintains hygiene then the number of cases can be reduced three folds. But HOW we will do that? , How can we make ever one habituated to the following safety precaution so the normalization can take place. So we have come up with a solution called C-CARE 1st ever preventive habit maker that will bring a positive change.
What our project does
Our app is 1st of its kind safety awareness system, which works on google geofencing API, in which it creates a geofence around the user home location and whenever the user leaves home, he will get a notification in the C-CARE app ( ' WEAR MASK ' ) and as the users return home he will get another notification ( ' WASH HANDS '), ensuring full safety of the user and their family. It is also loaded with additional features such as i.) HOTSPOT WARNING SYSTEM in which if the user enters into a COVID hotspot region he will be alerted to maintain 'SOCIAL DISTANCING' And it also has a statics board where the user can see how many times the user has visited each of these geofences. With repeated Notification, we will make people habituated of wear masks, washing hands, and social distancing which will make each and every one of us a COVID warrior, we are not only protecting ourselves but also protecting others, only with C-CARE.
Challenges we ran into
1,) we lack financial support as we have to make this app from scratch.
2.) the problem in collecting data regarding government-certified hotspot and also we have to do a lot of research regarding the spread pattern of COVID-19.
3.) Due to a lack of mentors, whenever the app stop working we had to figure out by ourself, how to correct the error.
4.) It took us too long to use it in real-time as during lockdown it was too hard to go outside in the quarantine but finally, after lockdown loosens a bit we tested it and it gave an excellent result.
5.) we didn't know much about geofencing before that so we have to learn it from scratch using youtube videos.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
WINNER at Global Hacks in the category of HEALTH AND MEDICINE.
WINNER at MacroHack As the best Android Application.
WINNER at MLH Hackcation in the category ( Our first Hackcation ).
TOP 5 in innovaTeen hacks.
TOP 10 in Restartindia.org and Hack the crisis Iceland.
What we learned
All team members of C-CARE were able to grow their area of competence by participating in the whole process of idea definition, market research, validation, prototyping, and presentation. Through different mentor sessions, we learned that problems could be approached by many means, but most importantly our mission should be clear.
What's next for C - CARE
COVID cases are increasing every day, and chances are low that we can create a vaccine immediately, apps like C-CARE will play a crucial role in lower the spread of infection till a proper vaccine is made.
Our app can also be used for seasonal diseases such as swine flu or bird flu or possible future pandemic such as Hantavirus, G4 Virus, bubonic flu, Monkeypox.

fundIt
A platform that democratizes access to capital for small businesses via crowdfunding
Inspiration
Startups founders don't have those connections or profits to get funding and especially in a year full of uncertainties many big investors are scared to invest in small businesses. And not all startups makes million dollars in their beginning years.
Meanwhile, most people are not as rich but want to invest. So we want to build a platform that benefits color businesses (because majority of them are quite small) and Investors both. Startups put their video pitches to help make investor a decision on the startup and investor can make an appointment with the business to know about their future goals before investing.
What it does
fundIt is a an app for small businesses to get crowdfunding by retail investors for equity.
Users can login and authenticate their credentials via Apple/Google/Email
Startups can post data such as PDFs, Images, and Text to supplement their crowdfunding campaign and help investors to make investment decisions
Investors can browse all campaigns via a Tab view
The most unique feature of this platform is the highlighted businesses of the month. Underrepresentation and discrimination is a huge problem in business investments so we want to represent those businesses by having a separate page for them.
Investors can schedule a virtual meeting with the representative of startup that will help investor know about the future plans of the business
Investors can pay as little as $10 for a share in the startup’s equity offered in the crowdfunding campaign
Investors can view their past investments & their total investments on a profile view
Startups can checkout the funds raised from the crowdsourced campaign via Apple/Google Pay to Apple/Google Wallets in a virtual FundIt card
How I built it
Flutter: Dynamic Mobile Applications that runs both on Android and iOS.
Firebase: For authentication
Square: Payment Processing
SQL: For storing the Business and Investor Information
UiPath: For automating the process for investors displaying startups according to their search history
Potential Users
Retail investors - who will be investing in the companies that are listed on our platform
Startups - they sign up for crowdfunding in exchange for equity.
Challenges I ran into
Payment Processing using Square
Automation with UiPath
Making dynamic user interface for startup took some time to apprehend
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Able to build a working platform with a great team work in such a short time.
What we learned
Learned how to divide tasks as a team and be accountable for it, setting report time
How to do payment processing
What's next for fundIt
We are planning to reach small businesses and small investors who could benefit from each other. Small businesses by getting money and small investors by getting returns on their investment with as little as 10 dollars.

Inspiration
Globally, at least 2.2 billion people have a vision impairment or blindness, of whom at least 1 billion have a vision impairment that could have been prevented or has yet to be addressed (
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/blindness-and-visual-impairment
) This is a huge section of the population who are deprived from benefits of advanced technology that could be used to better their lives and experiences. A simple task like shopping and reading labels and warnings on food becomes a burden which visually impaired people need to depend on others to perform. To address this and other such issues, we created MobilEyes.
What it does
At a basic level, this is a mobile app which used object recognition, OCR and accessibility services to identify objects in front of the visually impaired person and also to read labels for them using a text to speech engine. Modern smartphones all have accessibility features, one of which is the very common text to speech engine. We use this in conjunction with our app to make grocery shopping and buying food/medicines etc an easier task for the visually impaired.
We also have a subsystem which can identify the generic medication name given a brand name (for example, Tylenol - > Acetaminophen -> Paracetamol) This is not completely implemented yet.
How I built it
We used Flutter for the Frontend. I used the image_picker and flutter_tts plugins found on pub.dev to implement some features of our app. The food detection algorithm uses a pre trained Convolutional neural network model that is deployed on flask and hosted on Clarifai. Each food label was trained with 1000 images, with a minimal error rate. The Label/ Text detection uses Optical Character Recognition based on Tesseract, hosted on Google Cloud Platform.
Challenges I ran into
We first had trouble making the client-side and the backend communicate through post requests, however we were able to solve this problem by reformatting the data that was being communicated via post requests.We also had some internet issues but thankfully we were able to pull through and we were able to integrate the app completely and effectively.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We are proud that we completed what we set out to do in the first place. Our app is fully functional and is able to read any kind of label or identify any food.
What I learned
Making accessibility focused apps and services requires good design and decision making skills.
What's next for MobileEyez
Medication identification system (partially implemented) : generic medication name given a brand name (for example, Tylenol - > Acetaminophen -> Paracetamol)
We hope to implement more Machine Learning Algorithms so that the eyes can identify more and more things.

Return Email.
Inspiration
It was getting frustrating that people were not responding to emails and that there was no way to know if the email was being ignored.
What it does
Tracks emails and notifies the sender when an email has been read by a return email.
How I built it
I built it using PHP and javascript. A secret token is sent as an image with the email that calls the server telling it that the email has been viewed. The server then sends out a return email with the required details such as IP and Time to the from address.
Challenges I ran into
Creating an image token that would not be seen by the recipient of the email. I ended up using a very small blank png image and used CSS to make the size of the image 1px by 1px so it is not seen.
What I learned
I learned more about email servers and email hacks especially email tracing.

GitHub, Framer, and Presentation Link down below!!
Inspiration
We were inspired to create EZ eats after seeing and researching how much food is wasted in the world. Especially with our current situation, restaurants are wasting more and more unused food and losing money at the same time. This accounts for about ⅓ of the world’s food production which is wasted and goes to show how much can be done if we knew how to distribute it properly since it is still perfectly good food, it just hasn't been sold.
This not only contributes to growing food wastage numbers but also takes away from the economy which is already tremendously suffering. Restaurants are losing tremendous amounts of money as not as many customers are going to restaurants these days.
The major food wastage problem and the economy sailing into a colossal storm, due to the pandemic, inspired us to create EZ eats!
What it does
EZ eats connects users to restaurants in their area which have perfectly good unused food after hours that they would normally have to throw out. Users can order food from their favorite restaurants based on availability through our app and pick it up accordingly. The app will connect users with restaurants of their preferred cuisines and they can see which restaurants have leftover food daily, allowing them to purchase whatever they want while being at a cheaper price than the normal selling price. Since the food is being sold after hours, the price is reduced anywhere from 30-70 percent so the restaurants are still making money instead of losing it by throwing the food away, and users can buy good food at a cheaper price. This helps the problem of food waste and the economy at the same time.
How we built it
We made a website using HTML for EZ eats. We began by writing a simple code asking the user to input their contact information in order to receive updates about the steps that EZ eats will take moving forward. We also inserted logos and social media links where people can find out more about the app when it goes up and running. The website will update with new developments for EZ eats and will periodically send information to users who have signed up with their emails. In the future, this website will allow for more people to learn about EZ eats and its purpose; we are aiming to bring awareness to food wastage and how we can act upon it with the creation of this app.
We also created a functioning prototype on Framer which showcases the UI for the EZ eats app. We made all the screens for the app’s UI and then proceeded to link the buttons to their respective pages, allowing for a perfectly working prototype which can then be used as a model for the real app when created.
Challenges we ran into
Some challenges we ran into were agreeing on an idea as well as what we were going to do in order to execute it. We first started off by brainstorming ideas and then coming together in order to decide, which did take a considerable amount of back and forth. We then took some time to decide how we were going to turn the idea into a reality. These challenges overall helped us create a solid plan as to what we were going to do and how we were going to go about doing it, allowing for us to have a very smooth experience when actually working on a bulk of the project.
Other problems we faced were coding the website through HTML. We are both beginner level HTML coders, so a majority of our time was focussed on developing the website. We learned a lot along the process, ultimately, the long process was worth it.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we were able to create a website and a working prototype in the allotted time and that we were able to work together so seamlessly in order to create the best product we could. The website shows that the app is currently in progress and allows any interested people to sign up whenever they want to receive updates. This prototype allows us to see a true vision of what this app will be as well as its functionality.
What we learned
We learned how to make an idea into reality in a short amount of time by making a functioning prototype and website. We also learned the nuances of creating a website like the code and purchasing the domain so the idea could truly be ours. We also became more able to manage our time very efficiently and make an idea into reality. Let’s modernize our world and eat for less!
What's next for EZ eats
We hope that people truly see the vision of EZ eats and how it is aiming not only to help the environment but the economy as well. We plan to continue by doing some more in-depth market analysis and advertising it online and in-person in order to stir up interest. The more people who know about this problem and use this app to make a step forward, the more that we can curb the problem of food wastage and the effects this is taking on restaurants and the economy. This app is all about making a difference and this could be the first step to making it happen. Let’s modernize our world and eat for less!

Inspired by the situation in Delhi, India, wherein people who get the report of "COVID-positive" are expected to visit a hospital and queue up for hours together for
a chance to get a bed
at the hospital. If they do not get a bed, they go to another hospital, queue up for hours, and
hope
for a bed there too. This movement of COVID-19 positive patients from hospital to hospital and queueing up is troublesome in two of many ways. Firstly, this movement increases the risk of spreading of the virus itself as these patients visit many different hospitals in the hope to get a bed, thereby infecting so many different places. Secondly, these patients do not get immediate care, and are forced to spend time waiting in queues.
An added problem arises in beds being "booked" by people in power and those that can pay the highest for that bed. A news report featured a shocking amount asked by a COVID-19 patient of 1 lakh INR (£1061) per bed per night. During the current times of pandemic, corruption in healthcare must be condemned. Beds must be allotted based on case severity and not on the amount of money.
This inspired us to make an application that would help overcome these issues, and be able to allot a bed to the person, most in need, without them having to queue up and go hospital-to-hospital.
What it does
What if we could automate this system of "queueing-up" for a bed? What if we could have a system wherein COVID-19 positive patients would know exactly which hospital to go for a guaranteed bed, at the ease of their phone?
Keeping this in mind, we created a mobile application that lets:
1) COVID-19 patients look at bed availability in hospitals nearby,
2) COVID-19 patients send one e-application (through the app) for a bed to hospitals within 10km radius, by filling in details (such as age, past illnesses, travel history etc.) and attaching COVID-19 positive report scan,
3) The Machine Learning algorithm predicts and ranks the severity of the case/e-application using these details per bed space,
4) Based on the results of the ML model, hospital officials can be suggested on who the bed should be allotted to instead of allowing officials to indulge in allotting the bed to the highest bidder (the one with most money)
5) A hospital then allots an available bed to the most critical case/application after which the case/application is marked as "Treated" on the database of applications, which would signal to other hospitals that this particular case has already been catered to
6) The person who has been allotted the bed, gets a notification and a set time to arrive at.
In other words, we are creating a database of beds and the applications for those bed spaces, which are then ranked on the basis of severity using questions answered by the patient. The most severely ranked case gets a bed. This process brings about transparency and helps cater to those who need it most. It would aid in removing any corruption that exists in allotting bed spaces.
How we built it
The steps we followed for creating the ML model are:
1) Acquiring the Dataset: We found an appropriate dataset for this particular use case, on Kaggle.
2) Data Visualisation: We tried to visualise the data using various techniques and plots. We built correlation matrices, scatter and density plots, histograms to see which symptoms affected severity the most.
3) Data split: We split the data into 70:30 train:test.
4) Training: We trained the random forest classifier model on 70% of the data.
5) Testing: We then tested the model using the rest of the data.
6) Evaluation: We used various evaluation metrics to judge the performance of the model. It possessed a mean score of roughly 74%.
We then designed the app 'Covey', keeping in mind a simple user interface allowing easy input of data from the user point of view.
Further, we included a code written in JavaScript, which involved the Twilio framework to develop a messaging system to notify a patient if they have been allotted a bed at a hospital.
Challenges we ran into
Finding an appropriate dataset was the hardest task. This is because of the limited research on the ongoing pandemic. Secondly, downloading a few libraries that would satisfy the version requirement, took a significant bit of time and debugging.
What's next for COVID-19 Automatic Bed Allotter
We wish to increase the accuracy of our ML classifier and train it on a more intensive dataset, which includes more combinations of symptoms and other illnesses.
We are hoping to completely integrate the ML model with the app. Also, we hope to automate the notification being sent after a bed is allotted, as currently, it requires a prompt to run the code which then triggers a notification.

According to
Fortune
magazine, most Paycheck Protection Program loan recipients remain unnamed. As the global economy enters into a recession, we must restore democratic oversight over how this stimulus money is used. Thanks to the work at
Accountable.US
as they have pored over SEC filings to elucidate where American taxpayers' have gone, we have created a Chrome Extension that will help people around the world judge whether companies that received PPP bailouts really deserve their patronage.
What it does
CovidAccountable
looks through a webpage and searches for company names that match that received
PPP funding
. Company names that have a hit in this database get highlighted where the user can learn about how much the company has reaped from the PPP.
How we built it
COVIDAccountable runs on Google Chrome. We wrote a custom script that uses regex to read through a webpage DOM and identify the names of corporations that received COVID-19 funding. The tooltip that occurs over the word when generated uses the tipped tooltip library (
https://www.tippedjs.com
). Corporation data is sourced from Accountable.us data on Trump bailout (
https://www.trumpbailouts.org/small-businesses/?fbclid=IwAR3wjOLPg8FgoDRcoDY9sB5_S4l1RM-yb-WqoGWPnb-oZGf6JzAGszfQ744
)
Challenges we ran into
Finding PPP lender Information
We thank
Accountable.US
for their work in amassing this research together as without it, this project would not have been possible. However, even finding this information was difficult. As such, the importance of this project is of even more importance as we must hold our government accountable to ensuring fair access to PPP funds.
UI/UX Design
Computer Science curricula are much more focused on theory than on the latest of user interface. Consequently, it took quite some experimentation and research to get a good library working. Hans had prior experience with the
Tooltipster
library, but we eventually went for the
Tipped
library instead.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
As we approach an election year, it is extremely important that we understand how our government has managed the COVID-19 pandemic, both in epidemiological management and in economic support for the general population. As this government has obscured efforts to understand how PPP money has been used, we're proud of our steps to unveil this thus-opaque process.
What we learned
Chrome Extension development
UI with the Tipped library
What's next for CovidAccountable
We hope to train name-entity recognition models that will be able to distinguish company names from other names, e.g. suppose a company were called Ananas, we would want to pick up the company name Ananas, but not pineapples on Wikipedia.

I recently built a tevo tarantula 3D printer. I noticed that most 3D design software can be really confusing to new users(Myself included). Because of this I thought of the idea to make a simpler UI for beginners, it sacrifices higher end features with simplicity.
What it does
The UI is a simple html canvas, I use SignalR websockets to send the image data to my c# backend every time the user says they are finished with a layer. After all of that I use a special algorithm to convert the list of layers(which are in themselves lists of points) into a working GCode file for most 3d printers.
How I built it
I used
Asp.net core
for the backend and frontend,
SignalR
websockets were used for backend and frontend data passing. Frontend canvases were used for the UI design.
Challenges I ran into
This is the first time I actually worked with SignalR, so to get it working was really exciting for me.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Mostly the signalR websocketing, along with my use of efficient linq statements to clean data.
What I learned
How to use SignalR, along with the basics of Post and Get requests. I also learned the importance of a good UI.
What's next for simplePrint
Next up I'll work on making simplePrint even easier to use and manage. I'll add in a square draw tool, a circle draw and a fill tool. I'll also work on making the experience better by allowing users to trazel around all layers for a better view

Add a Quote
Inspiration
With all the negativity being spread around in the online world, we [3 rising seniors in high school] wanted to find a solution that changes this narrative.
So, we decided to create a platform where people can spread positivity by submitting personal quotes on different topics.
Whether it is an educational, comedic, or even a interesting quote, you never know who may benefit from reading these unique statements from people coming from all walks of life. We want to provide a safe space for people to share their opinions and ideas on certain subjects without being criticized for the belief that they have.
Our goal for this project is to create a website that will leave a lasting impact on society.
What it does
ThinkPos provides people with a platform to spread positivity through personal quotes
. We provide a user-friendly platform where unique individuals can share their beliefs, ideas, and opinions on all kinds of issues that are prevalent in our lives today.
How we built it
Using
MySQL
and
Node.js
, we created a backend that stores all the quotes being written by people, along with their name and where they're from. We also created a detailed and personal frontend using
Javascript, HTML5, CSS, and Bootstrap.
*
Overall, we spent 8 hours creating this project and deployed it using Heroku. *
Challenges we ran into
We struggled to properly format the quotes and dynamically add them to the website as they were being created by the user. Along with this, we struggled with storing and retrieving the quotes from the SQL database.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We were able to create a simple and intuitive interface to allow the users to view and write quotes with ease. We also successfully integrated the database with the frontend quotes display.
What we learned
We learned how to collaborate as a team in order to develop both ends of the website smoothly.
What's next for ThinkPos
We plan on deploying and publishing ThinkPos in order to allow people from around the world to use this platform frequently.

Our goal is to help create a community of aspiring young coders and give them the tools they need to achieve their dreams. By fostering the ambition of brilliant young minds and immersing them in the world of coding, we can help them become the future leaders of tomorrow.
What It Does
Our belief is that if children are not able to go to school, it is our responsibility to bring the school to them through our E-Learning platform. Our platform acts as a go-to site for those unable to access a conventional education so that they are able to get the resources they need to help them achieve their dreams. While reducing the costs normally associated with educational institutions such as tuition, books, and supplies, Learn2Code is able to work with international governments to adopt this E-Learning system to give children access to the education in coding they deserve.
How We Built It
Using Brackets as a source code editor, we created the website filled with tutorials and games and used CSS for the design. The games were coded using Python in Pycharm and are available to download through the website. There is also the ability for "clients" to get in touch with us to reach out for help.
Challenges We Ran Into
This was our team's first website and we began this with no prior experience in web or game development. Essentially, we learned all the concepts from scratch in order to create the website and games.
Accomplishments That We're Proud Of
We started this competition in order to teach ourselves the concepts of web development and were able to create a wonderful program for our first time.

Sample conversation
Inspiration
Many times, it is very difficult to pick a song that is perfect for your current mood. Especially during such an unprecedented time in our world, it is hard for people to understand how they feel, let alone understand how to feel better. A plethora of research studies have proven that music is truly one of the best ways to brighten someone’s day and MoodMatch aims at doing just that. This issue of not being able to understand one’s true emotions and grasp what is needed to acquire a more positive mindset inspired me to create MoodMatch.
What it does
MoodMatch is a Facebook Messenger ChatBot that recommends songs based on a user’s current mood. MoodMatch understands the user’s current emotions by asking several personalized questions and using novel sentimental analysis algorithms to deliver several songs that will cheer up the mood of the user.
How I built it
Before this project, I was very new to the ideas of creating a project. This project introduced me to the end-to-end programming pipeline. I started by first mapping out what I had to do:
Obtain a list of songs, artists, and lyrics of the songs
Perform sentimental analysis on the songs to understand what kinds of feelings are exhibited by the song
Create a messenger bot
Program the messenger bot to ask the user questions
Process the results (sentimental analysis on the chosen choices)
Recommend songs with similar sentiment levels or perhaps higher sentiment levels to cheer one up
I followed this process thoroughly and used the Microsoft Azure Cognitive Science API to perform sentimental analysis. I also used various APIs including Spotify, Genius Lyrics, and various others.
Originally, I had meant for MoodMatch to pop up a Messenger Webview and encourage users to fill out a form that would then allow for the processing of data, however, Facebook’s innovative Quick Replies module on Messenger allowed me to make MoodMatch more interactive and personalized for users.
Furthermore, all of the data regarding songs and the various components associated with it are stored using AWS S3, making this application a perfect model of cloud-based computing. Through this project and several past instances, I understood the growing power of cloud-based applications in our world and how leveraging the cloud through applications such as AWS and Azure will undoubtedly ameliorate your app.
Challenges I ran into
As I was very new to the end-to-end programming process, I ran into many challenges including not being able to understand what was wrong. My first challenge in this journey of completing MoodMatch was deploying my messenger bot on a Heroku server. Many times, I received an Error 400 or Error 500 stating that the /GET request cannot be found. However, once I got over this hump by fixing a few lines in my code, I was faced with several other tough mountains:
Obtaining results from the HTML form and using ExpressJS to deliver POST requests
Returning a list of songs and executing my algorithm on an ASYNC function
Transitioning from a bland messenger webview to more interactive Quick Replies
I often asked friends or even posted on StackOverflow to get some of my questions answered and get over these challenges. This project truly wouldn’t have been possible without others who helped me get over these challenges.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Creating a bot was not something I could've imagined me doing a few months ago, but now I have fully learned one example of the end-to-end programming pipeline. Getting over the aforementioned challenges and not giving up throughout the process has not only given me more technical knowledge, but it has impacted me mentally as I am more confident in my coding ability after this project.
What I learned
I fully learned the end to end programming pipeline of sorts. In particular, I learned the ins and outs of the various APIs I worked with and understanding how to deploy/manage server-based applications like a messenger chatbot.
What's next for MoodMatch
A lot is in store for MoodMatch, ranging from automating the song updates as well as adding more factors that may influence someone's choice of song. I plan on having an autorefresh of sorts for the list of songs already scraped off the web right now so that users will continuously get different songs. Perhaps even employing an account scenario in which users are never recommended the same song on multiple occasions is also one thing I plan to work on. Lastly, a lot of factors go into one’s feelings and current emotions, which definitely cannot be grasped by the current 2 questions asked my MoodMatch. I plan on adding more of these questions and even an open-ended question of sorts, in which users can type in their response, and emotional analysis will be performed on their inputs. In fact, a few of these are already in the works so be on the lookout for upcoming updates ;)

Foodbank
have difficulties staying open and carry their mission safely. But now more than before their help is needed by many.
In Belgium, the red cross had to close its operation for safety concerns. The solution put in place is a call center where volunteers call back people in need of food and enter their order in a spreadsheet share with food distribution center.
This inspired us to use our coding skills for good and provide this prototype.
What it does
This allows food banks to operate while keeping social distancing possible.
It uses Wix booking to settle online appointments (via Wix's zoom integration)
During the appointment, the social worker assess applicant situation (family, income) and creates an account for the beneficiary.
Once the account created, the beneficiary will receive a fixed amount of money (as a coupon) each week. This coupon can be used to shop online. If the beneficiary runs out of money, he can still purchase food via online payment or pay cash at delivery. Only the remaining cost will be charged.
It also has an
on behalf checkout
allowing social worker to shop and order in place of a beneficiary. This will allow helping people with low IT skill or less capacities to be on the platform as well.
Aid is temporary and is available for 1 to 12 weeks maximum.
Coupons are reset automatically every Monday.
How I built it
The centerpieces of this prototype are
Wix Store
and
Wix coupons API
.
Wix store does all the heavy lifting for the store experience (online product list & management). Only the checkout is customized thanks to the new
createOrder
API.
How to test
Create your own beneficiary account on
create test account
Challenges I ran into
I found an issue with the new
createOrder
API not working correctly with events.js but that has been reported and a workaround has been put in place.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I managed to do all the coding in 2,5 days of work (the design was pre made). I also used MobX as state management which is a nice addition to Wix and I will continue to use it for my next project.
What I learned
Working with the Store API and ecoSystem
What's next for
I think the project has the potential to help communities, I will try to find sponsors to develop it into a fully functional app

Inspiration
COVID-19 doesn’t just harm us physically. It can also be harmful to our mental and interpersonal well-being. In Singapore, there was an increase in family violence and a surge in mental health issues since the nationwide lockdown that started on 7 April this year. During this period, a market research company known as Ipsos found out that 1 in 4 respondents of an online survey was not in good mental health. One of the main reasons is the extended periods of social isolation and loneliness during the national lockdown
(Source)
. Furthermore, mental illness is still taboo in most countries and mental disorders are on the rise globally.
Objectives
In line with the theme of "Physically Apart, Virtually Connected", this project aims to:
Improve the accessibility of mental health support.
With the practice of social distancing, it is very unlikely that someone would queue and visit the therapist in person. That is why it is important to create a solution where patients can be attended by trained professionals virtually. I believe that mental health support must be widely available and affordable so that the mental health taboo can be broken.
Support COVID19 research.
The root issue of social distancing is the existence of COVID19, so why not support the cause of COVID19 vaccine research? Without COVID19, I believe that social distance can be restored and the number of mental health cases can also be reduced.
What It Does
To accomplish the objectives, I built the Human to Human project as a website that:
Allows certified psychologists, psychotherapists, and mindfulness coaches to register as our virtual therapists or lifestyle coaches.
Enables users to sign up for therapy sessions and mindfulness sessions online.
Automatically creates a Zoom meeting schedule, notifies web contributors (virtual therapists and lifestyle coaches) and users, and reminds both parties when a session is booked by the user.
Allows new users to book the first two sessions for free (1 therapy session and 1 mindfulness session).
Sells multiple session packages at affordable prices.
Raises awareness of mental health through transparent donations.
Donates 10% of profit to UNICEF and the Institute of Mental Health.
Allows users to make a donation directly without purchasing any session packages.
How It Works
Step 1
: User signs up as a member (Free membership)
Step 2
: User indicates to book a Therapy Session or a Mindfulness Sessions
Step 3
: User selects a slot
Step 4
: User purchases a session package. If it is the user's first time, the first session will be free of charge
Step 5
: User and Therapist (or Mindfulness Coach) receives a notification about booking details with a Zoom meeting link
Step 6
: Both parties receive a reminder about the upcoming session.
Step 7
: The session begins
Development
Design
I started by designing the web layout first. I chose a minimalist approach to ensure that the presentation of the website is clean and welcoming.
Basic Functions
Next, I made full use of the Wix Apps such as Wix Bookings and the elements of Wix Members Area. The idea is to exhaust the capabilities of existing pre-built functions provided by Wix before building any functions or systems from scratch. I have also used Wix Pay API to process payments from the purchase Wix Pricing Plans function.
Challenges
1. Limited Transaction Functions
There was no "Test Mode" for WixPay API to test a transaction and I couldn't access transactional data from Wix Corvid. These transactional data are an important part of the transparent donation distribution because I want to show and update donation details upon transaction completion.
The Solution: Integration of Stripe API
With this solution, I was able to save, update, and retrieve transactional data. This was possible through the use of:
Corvid Database Collections to store transactional data
Stripe NPM package to use Stripe API
Secret Manager to store and access Stripe API Secret Keys securely
Corvid NodeJS backend to create Checkout Sessions
HTTP Functions to receive webhook data from Stripe.
The Result: Transparent Donation Distribution
The solution allowed me to show a summary view of the Donation Distribution. Upon the completion of each transaction, the data in this summary view will be updated as soon as the backend server receives webhook data from Stripe.
2. Zoom Integration
I wanted to create a system where Zoom meetings can be created and hosted automatically by the therapist or lifestyle coach (so that the sessions remain private) when a user books a session. However, this is not possible because Zoom API configuration is per Master user based i.e. I can't let it interact with any free Zoom accounts (the therapists' account) unless these accounts were created as a sub-account under my Master account
(Source)
. Furthermore, to create sub-accounts, I will have to subscribe to paid plans, which is beyond the scope of this Hackathon.
The Solution: Wix Events
Thankfully, there was an alternative solution that is free of charge. By creating an online Zoom event in Wix Events, all sessions will be hosted by my Zoom account. As a result, both the therapist or lifestyle coach, and the user will be able to join the meeting once I have initiated the meeting.
The Result: It Works
With this method, I can leave the Zoom Meeting room when both parties are present, so the sessions remain private. One drawback of this method is that the meetings will have to be initiated manually by myself and I can't host concurrent sessions. Again, the limitation is due to the scope of the Hackathon and I'm sure that I'll be able to make this solution more elegant if I subscribe to the paid plans and create sub-accounts.
Testing Instructions
This website was created for this Hackathon and all the details of the therapists and mindfulness coaches are for demonstrating purpose only. However, this website is fully functional and as a user, you can:
Sign up and book 2 sessions for free (1 Therapy Session and 1 Mindfulness Session)
Receive email notifications for booking confirmation, Zoom meeting details and session reminder
Attend the Zoom meeting (I will not start any meetings for any booked slots in this demo)
Make a direct donation by using one of Stripe's
test cards
. Once the payment has been completed, you will be able to see the updated amount in the Summary View of the donation distribution.
Final Words
This is my first time joining a Hackathon and I enjoyed the process of creating this website. Please feel free to comment and give me any feedback. Thank you for reading my entry!

Inspiration
Kids are missing out on a lot of traditions, milestones and rights of passage due to the global pandemic. Kids are isolated at a time when socializing is so important to them. Even signing yearbooks is near impossible due to social distancing and remote learning so I decide to build a website that would allow students to sign yearbooks and share the experience online.
What it does
Students can invite friends and family to sign their yearbooks online by going to a personal page. Their guests can upload pictures along with their messages to the students page. Students can choose from creative designs to save the pages digitally and print them to save along with their real yearbooks. Members can search for other members to sign yearbooks and share their pages.
How I built it
I used Wix and a lot of javascript to create the custom messaging, searching and formatting features.
Challenges I ran into
I did not know much javascript but I needed a lot of features that required more than the standard Wix templates. I needed to use a lot of Corvid API calls and custom code.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I am proud that I was 1) able to put it together in such a short period of time, 2) pickup a lot of great javascript and Corvid skills quickly, and 3) the search pages have some sweet capabilities that you need to try out!
What I learned
That I have a lot more to learn!
What's next for My Yearbook Pages
Social media marketing to get the word out about it. It's fun and it's free. Repurposing it for Class reunions and other groups that want to connect and share specialized messages, updates and pictures.

Inspiration
In 2019, the video gaming industry generated $120.1 billion revenue-- making it one of the fastest growing industries today. Hence, many individuals like ourselves are using games in their daily lives to escape reality, and create unforgettable memories.Therefore, us three friends (who met on an online game) believe gaming allows individuals like us to connect and create relationships all around the world.This motivated us to take part in this hackathon, and develop a website that will allow individuals to connect with amazing people and possibly start a new friendship during tough times like now.
What it does
Our website was made to allow people who have a passion for gaming to connect with one another, and queue up, so they can play their favourite games together! We give the members of our community a wide selection of games to choose from, which are supported on both PC and mobile, and through the game that they select they will get paired up with other members who share the same interest for the game. You would then be encouraged to chat with the people that you have been matched with using the chat feature that is provided on the website.
How we built it
We created the home page by using the elements provided in Wix; the home page includes a “Get Started” button for new users, a “Games” section displaying all the games offered; and a FAQ section. The FAQ section was created with the built in Wix FAQ and customized to fit our website’s aesthetic. We used the built in Member Pages and created a custom Signup Form. The main part of our website was created with buttons and links. The “New Party” page starts off with a choice between Mobile games or PC games. The user then decides which game they wish to form a team for and selects the type of team — duos or squads. They are then prompted to click a button to join a team; once the button is clicked, they are put into a party. This pairing was built through Corvid with code which uses a dataset to add the member to an item. Once two members are added to an item, they are displayed as team members. The user is then encouraged to chat with their partner. We implemented the chat feature by using Wix Chat; the user has to search for their partner and they are able to chat. We have implemented this “pairing” section in the Mobile-Pubg-Duos game party; all the other game parties would have the same implementation to pair up the members.
Challenges we ran into
The main challenge that we ran into was when we tried to code the randomized name generator in order to create a party of people for a game. We couldn’t get our code to display the names of the members on the page for the viewer to see who they have been paired up with. We were able to combat this problem by using the Wix database to store the names and display them on the page. The other challenges we encountered were minor issues related to finding the tools that Wix/Corvid provided us with to create the initial template for our website.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
One of the accomplishments we are proud of is our graphic design, mainly in terms of creating our template and the graphics that represent the company like the game connect logo, and the controller on the main page. However, the accomplishment we are most proud of is the code that we created which was used to make the random name generator, allowing the community members to queue up with each other for their respective games. The code was by far the hardest portion of the project, making it the most rewarding part when completed.
What we learned
The main thing we learned was the coding language used in Wix. Learning a new language was difficult in the time provided. We learned how to link buttons and text elements through the code; the dataset we created also required different elements to make the pairs and display them. We had to learn different Javascript functions and syntax, and reference the Corvid API.
What's next for GameConnect
We really want to keep updating this website as we learn more about JavaScript from our degrees. We have many aspirations concerning GameConnect; for example, adding an audio chatting option, creating parties by skill levels, and improving our code to be more user friendly.

COVID-19 has impacted everyone in terms of feeling isolated and alone - however, the data suggests that those who suffer from a previous mental illness have increased feelings of isolation and therefore are greatly impacted by this lockdown. I wanted to create a platform by which those who suffer from mental illnesses can connect with those who are like them - in more ways than one (since the human is a complex creature not defined by a single entity), to help foster lasting relationships that may transcend this time.
What it does
Asks those who sign up to take a short quiz based on their interests and match them up to 2-3 other people of the same interests (roughly) in order for them to form a small group. They can attend events as well to meet new people outside of this small group in order to communicate and talk with others and connect.
The people are hand-selected and not by an algorithm by purpose - it gives the user a sense that someone human and not a machine is looking out for them and instantaneously gives them that sense of comfort and belonging in the community.
How I built it
Through the Wix editor and Corvid
Challenges I ran into
I struggled with getting the data to populate into the spreadsheets that I linked them to.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Figuring out how to make the quiz section and how to actually code my own web app - I'm normally the designer who tells the programmers what I want and how it should look like based on my psych and graphics background - however, this was the very first time I took a stab at actually doing the work myself. Whatever it turned out as. I'm super proud of it.
What I learned
To take a break from my computer and sometimes the idea will come to me.
What's next for Mentally Me&You
Launching it! Making it a reality will be beyond amazing.

Building and setting up Creatalk
We basically build Creatalk with Wix & sometimes used HTML5 manually.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we are able to provide a platform to creators to Chat, Discuss, Ask
& where they can showcase their Creativity
Challenges we Faced
As we are just 13 and 15 years old the biggest challenge was to overcome society. It has never been easy to do something against it, Honestly speaking it is very rare to be encouraged about the things we create or think about, but so far we always have been successful to continue our work.
What's next for Creatalk
We want Creatalk to be used by All kinds of Creative people all over the globe, and make other Branches of Creatalk like 'Creatalk Shop' and 'Airence'.

The most succesful open source software projects aren't just about good code. Great software projects have excellent documentation, good community leadership and management, varying tutorials and content created around them. At Open.Connect we aim to connect good software projects with great non-technical skills that can take the project to the next level!
What it does
Open.Connect helps people with non-technical skills find and contribute to open source projects that need their help. From technical writers, content makers, translators, data labelers or simply people to test the software we give the everyday person a window to helping ambitious open source projects take off!
How I built it
We picked a really good template - that matches our vision and aesthetic - we customized it to exactly what we needed then added functionality to allow people to post, comment and join open source projects and the help that they need on them.
Challenges I ran into
We spent a lot of time going over documentation and redoing things - trying to find the right way to do stuff.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We actually got something functional up.
What I learned
I learnt a lot about Corvid and Wix and how powerful the tools are. Allowing you to drag and drop most functionality and dig down deep into the code when you need to.

As students from low-income schools, we had little to no helpful resources for academic achievement and college preparation that our previous school failed to present us. We wanted to make sure that the later generations don't have to struggle as we did and become successful in whatever they set their minds on.
What it does
You can virtually learn all areas of study including STEM as well as request for any tutoring help.
How we built it
We built our website using Wix Corvid and JavaScript.
Challenges we ran into
We were having issues with the request tutor submission button triggering an email notification to one of us as well as displaying the Team Dynamic page on the live site. Thankfully, we resolved both issues.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We were very proud that this website could be completed and we could accomplish all of which we had our eyes, hearts, and minds set on.
What we learned
We learned that there are those who struggle to learn in a classroom, and having someone to help who was once in their shoes really is inspiring.
What's next for Black Roots Succeed
Due to COVID-19, we were unable to go around our communities and different schools to survey BRS and how it could benefit them and their students. After the pandemic, however, we would like to accomplish this so that we can make this project a reality.

What it is
(what it's supposed to be):
TL;DR
A digital collaboration space
long answer:
A digital collaboration space that utilizes the pomodoro technique to maximize productivity. Ideally, the schedule / timetable (see images 6-8 above) should be adapted to the user's selected room type and pomodoro choice (standard, mini, marathon). Each block of time is partitioned to specific objectives with an agenda determined by the host, along with mods for larger sessions. A typical virtual study session would look different from, say, a workout session, a music collaboration session, an interview session, or a pair programming session. Users declare and elect to participate in achieving shared goals within a dedicated time frame.
Spaces can be private or public, recurring or one-time only, specific or general (e.g. private study vs open study, private tutoring vs open course, a closed chorus sectional vs an open virtual karaoke room, a writer's corner for 5 writers in Toronto, Canada vs a writer's room for 15 writers across the globe... the possibilities are endless). It is no wonder that videos like "study with me", "study with me live", "study with me pomodoro", etc., pull in 67K+ views per month on YouTube from direct searches alone. Equipped with interactive features catered to each room type, users get 24/7 internationally accessible + customizable virtual environment spaces with multilingual support, fostering productivity and accountability.
Members can earn badges for accomplished goals and completed sessions. But the greatest reward of all? Nothing beats hitting milestones and reaching personal + collective achievements. Anyone can benefit if they have goals or projects to work on. But it would most benefit those who need that extra push or motivation to get to the finish line. This is the inception of DigiCollab.

10,207 | https://devpost.com/software/conscious-leaf | The Trend-savvy procreation can help many instances where there is no problem solving in the social network today.
Inspiration
The way we interact is fast changing, where desires rule and normal perceptions of planes of expression are not balanced.
The insight is that in this fast changing world, we need to be equally supported for an empowered positive and harmonious existence.
The social common-ness in all of us is a voluntary part called Goodwil, where this can help life and existence.
In the Conscious Leaf, while connecting to one and another, the expectation for any participant, or group, or family or entity is to show interest to safeguard, respect and support our life paths.
The act of social interaction where we often forward, post, recommend, show likes, or write feedback will need to include a Goodwill framework, where we can incorporate problem solving, necessary action for timelines and focal point support as sampled in the Conscious Leaf’s blog post called Customer Enabling.
We are at a periphery which can become autonomous for self-organization and sustenance.
What it does
Scope: The Web application is a landing page that can be accessed using any of the following: Web browsers Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Opera Browser, where platforms supported depends upon the browser and Wix.
Installation: There is no separate installation required as all the web pages have been created using Wix
Functionality: The Web application allows a person, person(s), family, social circle, business, associated interested parties to create a Network type of users, where the Network type can be Social Networking, Quality Of Life, Conscious Endeavor, Conscious Need and Conscious Seed.
For a Network type, the members can either share text and non-verbal content (like images, content files etc).
The difference being that for a Network type, a specific element and subject of interest is selected to ensure communication, virtual communication and social networking is focused and enabling.
A member can either send or notify a member or all members of a Network type, where different additional clauses help search or filter matching information.
Again to help improve social performance, a Goodwill element is attached to each Network type, where the Goodwill element permits members, interested parties to act or assist in ways possible.
Depending upon the Network type, the network could be for social life, industry, business. governance and/or relevant decision making.
With the ability to add frameworks, systems, applications or tools to these Network types, people, businesses or stakeholders may find it easier to network and sense & respond to issues or problems affecting our furtherance.
Each Conscious Leaf type has a conceptual URL demonstrating the need for this type of social networking and furtherance.
Each Conscious Leaf type and its Network types, have a link to a document explaining purpose and strategic lifecycles.
How I built it
I have used the Wix framework and integrated what is commonly expected in social networking
but with a sense & respond perception to participate and work together.
Challenges I ran into
Time constraint that did not permit me to convert the Excel tabulations into CORVID features
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Transitioning Perception and Surer Goodwill in social participation and official co-governance
What I learned
The pro-activeness to develop a complete implementation is considered more important than what will be demonstrated as basic tabulations or processes.
The web application in the form of a landing page
www.venkataoec.wixsite.com/consciousleaf
links to other web sites/web pages that are appropriate for the use of CORVID features.
What's next for Conscious Leaf
The Conscious Leaf backed up by social participation and/or leadership can work via a domino effect to safeguard, respect and support normal perceptions of our life paths amidst manifestations that are volatile.
This deeper level of interaction is about “being physically distanced but virtually connected (via social networking)” where social participation and support can connect to all levels of our life paths to protect, to balance and to help problem solving in a manner that is a greater basis for empowered “accomplishment and relief”.
This social participation and platform for transition is built on the understanding that most of the countries and people are led by constitutional powers, legal policies, legal systems, logical and practical thinking that justice is the same for one and all.
We want a world where there is adept action for our timelines.
Therein as a part of the interest for this hackathon, the Conscious Leaf is a work-in- progress platform where we can understand social common-ness though being physically distanced.

Non-profit organisations around the world have been impacted due to the spread of Covid-19. IUGO was created with the goal of setting up a global network of such organisations, enabling interaction and communication with each other during these difficult times.
What it does
IUGO is a platform that enables non-profit organisations to connect and communicate with other organisations that work towards the same/similar goals. Using IUGO, organisations can find other suitable collaborators, gather information about them, and initiate communication, all using a single platform.
How we built it
The complete prototype, from design to functionality, was planned and built using Wix, along with the Corvid dev features. The Corvid integrated database was used to store all the necessary data, enabling easy retrieval and filtering.
What's next for IUGO
The prototype being submitted here consists of just a subset of our ideas for the app. We would like to make IUGO a one stop website for exploring different organisations and their efforts across the globe, enable them to reach their goals by connecting them to suitable collaborators and donors, facilitate smooth communications and transactions between merged parties on the website, etc. Once these virtual mergers are set up, IUGO can be a transparent platform that showcases the efforts of these organisations to the rest of the world.
We also hope to exploit many more of the Wix-Corvid features available for the same.

10,207 | https://devpost.com/software/beyond-reality | Inspiration
COVID-19 was classified as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. The virus was first identified in Wuhan, China and ultimately affected the lives of millions. Many people are experiencing drastic changes in their lives – losing loved ones, jobs, friends and the sense of safety. Due to this, I and many others in this community began thinking
“How can we connect individuals, communities, organizations and nations to unite and bring people together through a virtual solution during isolation?”
Mission Statement
BeyondReality is a web-based organization that strives to help people find comfort while interacting with others on social media. An experience that provides individuals to start conversations about their personal experiences associated with Coronavirus. This would be an opportunity for people impacted to share their experiences and enlighten others with some of their experiences.
Our organization originates on
jilshah.wixsite.com/
beyondreality
which serves as the anchor to support the people who need it the most. Providing people with a resource to connect with others across the world and form an environment in which everyone’s voice will be heard while responsibly maintaining the safety precautions associated with COVID. Building a strong beacon of hope for everyone affected by the virus and showcasing how we as a global community can come together and
create a safe platform to share stories, words of strength and building strong connections.
We are the ones who can make a difference, by creating organizations and groups that come together to create a change in this society.
Features and Functionality
The unique features used throughout the website includes:
Database Collections
: This feature helps organize and manage site data using the built-in database on WIX. Databases are included for storing members and user data, the blog and the forums page to organize and display the information collected.
Secret Manager
: The secret manager feature is used to securely store secrets such as API keys, passwords, and private information. The use of secrets is used to maintain and keep the passwords for the users to login to the forums safe and protected.
HTML/CSS
: Multiple cases throughout the website, I have integrated HTML code to use different features. For instance, chart.js is integrated into the corvid stories page to display the number of posts for each category.
Website Includes
coVid STORIES
: A
blog-based webpage
, which allows users to share stories regarding COVID. This could be a
survival story, how you're spending your day alone, with family or friends, loss story, or your experience with getting tested.
This is to bring people together during a time of heightened fear, anxiety and isolation. These stories are to provide hope and a sense of safety to the people that need it the most. The user can upload a post through the forms, which will automatically be posted, the user can choose which type of posts to read and the chart displays the number of posts for each category.
groUps
: Through the groups page a member can access the different forums with the use of the passwords emailed to the member registration email. This gives every member the opportunity to join a conversation that they may be interested in and create friends in a forum-based application.
Challenges I ran into
With the web-based application developed on WIX Corvid with a short timeline and a big goal, it was inevitable for a few bumps on the road. Through resilience, communication and a helpful WIX Community on the forums page, I was able to overcome many challenges:
Lack of access to some desired APIs and external databases that include coVid-19 statistics.
Several API’s are not ready to be used by third-party sites.
Insufficient time for implementing unique, interactive features.
Getting in contact with other users to help me spread the message.
What's next for BeyondReality
I plan to continue the social campaign to try and expand the BEYONDREALITY community, to achieve a minimum of 30 posts per day on the different forums. I hope to create posts that will encourage and influence others to share their story and allow others to share and communicate with people who may need a friend. I will continue reaching out to the influencers, front-line workers and everyone impacted directly by the virus to amplify the movement. Many enhancements will be done on the website to include integration to other social media pages, surveys and polls that will lead to further engagement.
Let BeyondReality virtually connect you to others beyond the barriers.

The Covid-19 pandemic halted and changed the entire world for human beings. There is not a single person on earth who can claim they were not affected by the greatest threat to health in the history of mankind since the Spanish plague. Unfortunately for us, the flu a century ago did not necessarily chart the course for us today.
As a part of the micro small medium enterprise (MSME) industry in the Philippines, the pandemic brought our livelihood and businesses to a standstill. As our losses mounted, we were forced to think of ways on how to pivot our businesses and adapt to the current challenges posed by the pandemic in order to thrive. The motivation to build a solution was
very
personal.
In the Philippines, there is no other platform more prevalent in the lives of the Filipinos other than Facebook. It is the most popular media among Filipinos; so naturally, at the height of Covid-19 people maximize the social media's marketplace to sell food products and deliver food services otherwise unavailable pre-COVID. The Facebook marketplace became dominated by food commerce. Understanding that other tradespeople must be as desperate as we are to fight for our livelihood and income, we saw the need for a separate platform for tradespeople and started on the idea of how to bring customers to them.
What it does
Lokalista.net is a digital yellow page of vetted skilled resources in a local area. The website name is a play of the Filipino
bisayan
dialect
lokal
meaning "local" and
lista
meaning "list". It provides a list of reliable and skilled local tradespeople in a direct and time-efficient manner.
One of the necessary measures undertaken to contain the spread of the virus is to restrict the movements of people. Thus, getting a reliable tradesman for simple household repairs like electricians, plumbers, carpenters, and others is a herculean job given that most areas in the Philippines have no digital platform for tradespeople. Consequently, with no foot traffic to their shops and businesses, job losses are in millions.
Lokalista.net fulfills both the needs of the customers and tradespeople. A platform for tradesmen to showcase their skills and workmanship, to connect with their existing and future customers, to help local tradesmen pivot to the digital age. A platform that can provide thousands of jobs to thousands of tradesmen.
For consumers, the platform provides important contact information to enable seamless connection, saving time, and probably guaranteeing safety in these fearful times.
How does the website work? In 3 easy steps:
Search
Contact & hire.
Leave a review.
Imagine your car broke and you are stranded in the middle of nowhere.

Lokalista.net will provide you valuable contact information about the nearest automotive mechanic in your location so you can be on your way home.
No waiting. No bidding. No additional charges or commissions.

How we built it
We employed various listening tools to get customer experience and complaints at the height of the pandemic. We also interviewed tradespeople and professionals on their challenges in service delivery to reach their intended customers. Further, we gathered baseline information on existing solutions and found that it does not truly address the need of tradespeople.
To act fast on our idea, we use Wix for its ease of use and functionality. Its adaptability and intuitive interface made it possible for our coder to build the website in days. Wix template is also perfect because it is mobile friendly as 97% of Filipinos access the internet through mobile phones.
Challenges we ran into
"Physically apart, virtually connected" couldn't be more apt to describe our three-man team. We built the website in 10 short days even if two members are based in the Philippines and only one coder who is living in New Zealand. To this day, we have not seen each other in years. We communicate, argue, and yes ---- ideate, through messenger, email and video conferencing. We are a team with different backgrounds and separate day jobs. Since it is our coder's first time to use Corvid by Wix, the rest of the team has to endure his countless fits as he struggled to build a robust website. Good thing that Wix has a forum based community that he can turn to when he needs help and guidance in using Wix code.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The website is still a work in progress, but we are proud and excited that we were able to execute in ten days what was just a spark of an idea despite the fact that we were challenged financially and geographically. A lot of people have great ideas and compelling reasons to help others, but not everyone acts on it. Thanks to Wix and to the imagination and courage of the team, that spark of an idea will provide
light
for thousands of other Filipinos who lost their livelihood in this pandemic.
What we learned
We learned later on that there are similar websites abroad with millions of traffic monthly helping customers find the right tradesman for their needs. So we learned that our idea is not new to the world, but we also learned that this idea truly serves a need if other websites are successfully connecting tradespeople with their customers. We are not looking to compete in the world stage, we are looking to help the tiny community we live in. So we will continue learning and failing, we know that this journey is a marathon and not a sprint. That in the challenges we face in building this website therein lies our success.
What's next for Lokalista.net
The team is working on the following functions:
Feedback rating system
Mapping
Internal dashboard for management
Mobile application
Tradesman login and dashboard
Queue page for uploaded photos/details by tradesman and/or agent for webmaster/admin

Inspiration
I got inspired from my schedule during the quarantine. I found that my exercise time and cooking time gradually increased during the quarantine. I think the reason behind it is that I start to get interested in these areas. I think people want to try something that they haven't done or tried during this long break. Therefore, I created this website to help those people who want to try new things, but do not know where to start.
What it does
The website includes two main concepts: food and exercise. People can find recipes for different types of popular foods from different countries, and workout videos to start doing exercising.
How I built it
I used mostly Wix's functions, and some javascript codes were integrated into the website to create some good visual effects for the website.
Challenges I ran into
I needed to create many webpages and I can only create one layer for the subpages. It was a challenge to get everything in order when there are many pages, and it is pretty time-consuming.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I published my first website and the content inside it is pretty meaningful. I'm pretty proud of it.
What I learned
I learned how to use most functions in Wix and integrate javascript code in it.
What's next for "KET"
I'm planning to add a "knowledge enrichment" section. I will put many courses' resources in this section, and I hope students can also self-learn subjects during the break.

Using the internet, teachers can reach out to students across the world. The right online platform with active users worldwide who might be opting for the course will be the complement to the teacher. An online platform allows the teachers to get actionable insights about the courses, classes, and content delivery. The teachers can get deep insights about the student such as content consumed by each student, live classes attended, and percentage of course completed. Based on this information, she/he can refine their course content. Server security, encryption types, and other technologies to keep the data safe on online platforms. The versatility like polls, quizzes, and other interactive elements encourage the students to learn online. Tablets and mobile phones are transforming to access content and stay connected.
What it does
It is meant for the delivery of the educational content to students. So, the platform is in high demand in schools and universities across the globe. We can highlight the features that must be present in the learning platform. Those are,
Virtual Classroom - Virtual classroom has a feature such as a whiteboard, two-way writing control, and live class recording that enables the synchronous or instructor-led class.
Easy to use Interface - Instructors and Learners should be able to navigate through the app easily. so, the teachers can get the idea of ebooks and online content delivery platforms in the classroom.
Offline Reading: Content must also be accessible offline so that the students would download the content and read it later.
Interactive Elements - the innovative tools allow the students to make notes and share with teachers, bookmark information, highlight text and search for information, etc.,
Assessment Tools - Teachers will be able to review the assessment and provide feedback online by quizzes, multiple-choice questions, etc.,
Analytics - It helps to measure the effectiveness of learning and teaching so that the teachers get actionable information.
Dashboards - Learning Dashboards can offer both students and teachers a better way to visualize progress through the mix of reports and assessments.
How I built it
I have fully utilized the Corvid and Wix features for building this website. I have a prototype for this application and split the features into tasks. Wix has good documentation for all the features and functionality. So, I have been working on completing the tasks easily.
Challenges I ran into
Wix has good features to use it for building the application. But, it takes time to load and save the work. Also, I need to learn more about the Wix specific features of backend and web modules functionality for applying to this project
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I have developed this product for students who are interested to learn online. So, I have accomplished for building the application to be beneficial for the instructors and students.
What I learned
I have learned the Corvid Wix features and functionality. Also, Wix has a good User Management editor. You can easily test using console.log functionality. I have learned many things that the compiler behaves for different user inputs.
What's next for Online Classes for Instructors and Learners
I have developed this project for instructors and students. So, based on their feedback and user input, the features and functionality of the project will be upgraded.

Virtual Tour: Add new place
Inspiration
I was trying to think what people miss while being physically apart and quarantined.
I came out with few ideas and decided to focus on the issues of the disability to travel around the world while most of the skies are closed.
I thought it would be nice to get up with a platform that allows people to share their favorite places and see places other had shared. I believe this is the essence of Physically Apart, Virtually Connected and breaking the social distancing.
What it does
Virtual tour allows signed in users to share a place they like and invite others to virtually travel there.
Each place has a description, tags, image and sections. Each section has its own description and images using a gallery.
For example if you share Paris as a place you can use sections to different parts of the city or sites you can visit.
A place does not have to be a city - It can be anything you think worth sharing with others.
Other members as well as anonymous visitors can see these places and enjoy the virtual tour there using the information and tips from real people who love their place and shared it with others. Each place is presented with all its sections and galleries.
In order to search the places list visitors can filter it out by name, country or tags.
Members can edit their places if they wish to modify its sections.
New Feature:
You can now add google map link to a place you share.
The link will be saved and a relevant map will be displayed on the place page.
How I built it
I used different databases for places and their sections and referenced each section to its relevant place.
When a member adds a new place he or she can add sections using a lightbox passing data between the ligthbox and page. From the users side this separation is transparent and they do not have to worry about it.
Another database supports the tags for the places and back-end javascript modules supports the countries and members functionality.
Challenges I ran into and learned from
One main challenge was to allow the use of an upload button to support media galleries rather then use several image fields. It took me a bit to realize how to use it correctly but it is up and running including the ability of members to delete and replace gallery items they have uploaded.
I also challenged the display of a place author. The PrivateMemebrsData database permissions does not allow one to see information of others. I had to build another database with users names and display the correct name form there. Obviously I also had to come out with a solution for updating this database if a members changes his name.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I decided not to use the built-in blog system as I wanted more control in terms of data structure and code. I am proud of doing all from scratch.
What's next for Virtual Tour
My next step would be to add video support. Right now the galleries are working only with images.
Another thing I would like to do is to approach travel agencies and encourage them to use the site to publish the places they would normally travel with their costumers. This will allow them to build some virtual presence for the time after Covid-19 virus.
Another Idea I might use for further improvement would be to allow users to edit trip albums and send it to friends and family.

For the past few months I've been working as a secretary in an educational program for gifted children.
Due to Covid19 we had to find a way to keep the business moving and make sure the kids have a safe and healthy learning environment.
My boss asked me to be creative and figure out a way to keep the kids social and happy.
So, My way of staying social is through social networks like FB, WhatsApp, Instagram ect.
What about building a safe social-network for kids? I've never used Corvid or wrote code before, but i did use wix many times in the past few years.
So i'll give it a try.. why not?
What it does
Imagin a colourful, dynamic virtual world, packed with educational games that change daily.
A world for inquisitive Hebrew speaking children (3rd -9th grade) from all over the world, in which they can use a dedicated and safe platform to learn, communicate, connect, socialize and have fun together.
NO NEED TO IMAGEN! This is real and it's happening right here!
A variety of fascinating lessons will take place daily, taught by our experienced teachers’ team in virtual classes.
Moreover! Each and every child can create their own personal profile, find other children with similar interests, to share, comment, respond and connect with children worldwide.
How I built it
for about a month and a half i spent 14 hours a day building and designing the site i had in mind.
I used corvid forum for help in code and i spent hours learning JS on my own.
As I got closer to my deadline I found a very talented woman who helped me out with the more difficult code. Every day I add a new feature and improve my website.
Challenges I ran into
Well, There where some challenges BUT nothing that I couldn't figure out with the help of Dafna and my dad (a proud wix saba).
One bug we found that that pretty messed up our opening day- but who cares?! it was so succesful :)
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Oh Wow! in a personal mater- I had the best time speaking with my dad every single day about something that i never thought we will have in common lol/
I am pretty damn proud of myself for the whole process.
What I learned
I learned CODE! i learned that almost anything I want to do on my WIX website is possible.
I learned PhotoShop and many other softwares.
What's next for virtual world
We had the best first week using the site and we have 5 more to go.
This platform is gonna be used all year long by kids around the world.
The site is private and closed to anyone who is not a member.

Inspiration
I work for a live event production company. We do over 200 events a year, all across the US. When Covid-19 caused live events to cancel for the entire year, our company was faced with a difficult reality. Instead of giving up and shutting our doors, we decided to pivot towards virtual events. Organizations need to get their messages out and have been forced to find virtual event platforms. While there are many platforms out there, many of them can cost more than our clients can afford during this time and they do not generally have production people to execute the events. My goal is to provide people with a way to get their message out without breaking the bank. One that offers great value to everyone involved!
What it does
Virtual Attendees will be able to:
-Watch live stream content
-Watch on-demand content
-Join interactive workshops using 3rd party systems
-Chat with other attendees across the website and never lose their connection to others
-start discussions on Forum
-Create & Join groups with other attendees
-Share files such as PowerPoints, PDFs for Poster Sessions, etc.
-Go to the arcade during breaks
-Search and filter exhibitors, presenters, sessions
-Add exhibitors, presenters and sessions to their interests/favorites page so they can customize their experience
-Pay to become exhibitors and showcase their products
-Sponsor events and have exclusive real estate within the platform
-See which sessions are happening right now!
How I built it
As a complete novice, I started with many of the already great modules included within Wix such as the forum, groups, pricing plans and chat. As I became more excited about the project, I paid for a Corvid course online and started developing more custom features such as search, filter, wix queries.
Challenges I ran into
API's are above and beyond my skillset at this point and have been the most difficult thing to overcome. I was unable to connect some of the other video platforms in such a way where users do not have to log in on these 3rd party solutions. I plan to continue to learn how to accomplish this.
I had difficulties learning how to supply User ID analytics with Google. It would be helpful to know if John Smith attended a specific session and how long he attended it. This would be useful for many associations that provide CE credits.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I am very proud of the overall functionality of this platform, regardless of my limited skills. I have shown it to many in the industry and they believe it is a fantastic option. I see a great future in helping companies get their messages out.
What I learned
I learned that Wix is a very robust system for virtual events. It really has everything organizations need to provide an engaging experience. As a production company, we learned that what we do from a production standpoint is also a critical element. I learned that I love working with Wix and want to know more.
What's next for Virtualized Events
The company I work for has always been very good to me and it has been difficult for them to lose every single live event for 2020 and beyond. As there is much competition from other virtual event platforms, I want to help our company be a one-stop shop for customers, bridging the gap between the production and platform.

How I built it
I built it with corvid by wix which i could manage javascript and database.
Challenges I ran into
Corvid by wix is kind of new. Therefore, i had to learn how i manage it. And also i had to think how i modified the idea to database collections with using Corvid by wix
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
While i am using the Corvid by wix, I am kind of got the idea how i will use it. And it could be my first proper site that is made by Corvid by wix
What I learned
I think there are more functions in Corvid by wix which i could use it more in the future. So, i think i have to review the materials again. Retry it.
What's next for test
i might add more information in the site and reorganize the database.

2020 has been marked by a devastating pandemic and many, many industries have suffered the consequences. One that has been hit hard is the music industry, where many to all mass gatherings, concerts, festivals and other events have been canceled, if not forbidden. We wanted to offer an alternative source for artists to generate revenue in these harsh times by allowing them to perform unique, live online performances that are monetised. In addition to that, we are a not-for-profit organisation: the major part of the generated revenues are redistributed directly to the artists, with up to 90%.
What it does
Artists Unlimited (AU!) is a live streaming platform for artists to live stream performances and generate revenue, for venues to broaden their audience and for fans to enjoy quality live performances in new and innovative ways.
How we built it
The platform is built on Wix with integration of various external components.
Challenges we ran into
Building a full fledged streaming site with limited technology and ressources.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
There has been less than a month between the moment the team met and the organisation of the first Belgian Livestream Festival, but me made it happen: we sold 2000 online tickets, streamed to 41 different countries during 10 hours with 8 major performing artists in full HD.
What we learned
Building a whole new platform from scratch involves a lot of different aspects, Partners, needs a lot of very different skills sets and is a huge challenge for everyone involved. But with the right people and mindset, we can achieve incredible challenges in incredible short time.
What's next for Artists Unlimited
After a successful proof of concept festival, we have focused on launching and opening our platform to the public and are hosting various musical events with artists around the world. The coming month are dedicated to further developing the features so that artists, venue and more can actively and autonomously host their own streaming events on our platform.
Our mission and vision
Artists Unlimited (AU!) is a live streaming platform for artists to live stream performances and generate revenue, for venues to broaden their audience and for fans to enjoy quality live performances in new and innovative ways.
AU! hosts a platform that provides high-end live-performance streaming services behind a paywall which offers a strong value proposition to three important stakeholders:
- venues and festivals, through ticketed, curated stages on the AU! online platform to complement their brick and mortar clubs or halls,
- artists and managers, through access to a wider community of subscribing fans to spark fan engagement and drive revenue, before, during and after a live performance, and
- fans, through a continuous offering of once-in-a-lifetime true live performances, no recorded music.
Unlike other streaming platforms, our platform is not-for-profit and aims at channeling the generated revenue back to the artists as much as possible. We call the platform “AU!” from the conviction that it can ease the pain in the music industry. As we like to say: the show must go online.

My Girlfriend and I was during researched about Maldives holiday packages and check price during this pandemic for upcoming season. We found it that price is really high and most of traveller who cant afford a holiday with their family to Maldives, specially during this Covid-19 pandemic. So we decided to make an easy and cheap plan for those who want holiday in Maldives so we can give a hand to them to make their dream come to true and make them unforgettable stay here in Maldives, and we had deal with some of my friend hotel that we can make their stay instalment plan so it would be really helpful. We realised that we could also a simple web that everyone can gather and discuss in the platform that we were making our deals and best price,
What it does
It is a web page bot that allows people to get contact with us by chat with our travel planer. By giving your requirement to agent according to that we will make a BAR price, we learn your general style and thus we are able to recommend the apartments that you are going to like, under your budget, in Maldives :) We can also book the Holiday package for you.
How I built it
by using ascend by wix
Challenges I ran into
Our biggest challenge was using python's sql orm to store our data. In general, integrating the many libraries we used was quite challenging.
The next challenge we faced was time, our application was slow and timing out on multiple requests. So we implemented an in-memory cache of all the requests but most importantly we modified the design of the code to make it multi-threaded.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We all used a shared database on AWS RDS which saved us a lot of database scheme migration nightmares.
What I learned
We learned how to use python in depth with integration with MySQL and Sk learn. We also discovered how to spawn a database with AWS. We also learned how to save classifiers to the database and reload them.
What's next for Best Deal For traveller at the Lowest cost to Maldives
If we win hopefully my dream come true because we help people those who are in need! Can be used by companies for automatic accommodations for people having interviews. But only by individuals how just want to find the best apartment for their own style!

What it does
By using live chat feature, I was able to connect my members to connect with one another and for them to meet new people. I also create forum for a certain area where people live nearby so they could share their similar interests.

Inspiration
COVID-19 pandemic is affecting economies in every continent. Unemployment rates are spiking every single day with the United States reporting around 26 million people applying for unemployment benefits, which is the highest recorded in its long history, millions have been furloughed in the United Kingdom, and thousands have been laid off around the world. These desperate times provides a perfect opportunity for online scammers to take advantage of the desperation and vulnerability of thousands and millions of people looking out for jobs. We see a steep rise in these fake job postings during COVID-19. In the grand scheme of things, what may start off as a harmless fake job advert, has the potential of ending in human trafficking. We are trying to tackle this issue at the grassroot level.
What it does
We have designed a machine learning model that helps distinguish fake job adverts from genuine ones. We have trained six models and have drawn a comparison among them. To portray how our ML model can be integrated into any job portal, we have designed a mobile application that shows the integration and can be viewed from the eyes of a job seeker. Our mobile application has four features in particular: 1) Portfolio page: This page is the first page of the app post-login, which allows a job seeker to enter their employment history, much like any other job portal/app. 2) Forum: A discussion forum allowing job seekers from all around the world to share and gain advice 3) Job Finding: The main page of the app which allows job seekers to view postings that have been run through our Machine learning algorithm and have been marked as real adverts. 4) Chat feature: This feature allows job seekers to communicate with employers directly and discuss job postings and applications.
How I built it
We explored the data and provided insights into which industries are more affected and what are the critical red flags which can give away these fake postings. Then we applied machine learning models to predict how we can detect these counterfeit postings. In further detail: Data collection: We used an open-source dataset that contained 17,880 job post details with 900 fraudulent ones. Data visualisation: We visualised the data to understand if there were any key differences between real and fake job postings, such as if the number of words in fraud job postings was any lesser than real ones. Data split: We then split the data into training and test sets. Model Training: We trained various models such as Logistic regression, KNN, Random Forest etc. to see which model worked best for our data. Model Evaluation: Using various classification parameters, we evaluated how well our models performed. For example, our Random Forest model had a roc_auc score of 0.76. We also evaluated how each model did in comparison to the others.
Further on, we designed an app titled JOB, using Adobe XD. We also integrated a Twilio framework so as to add a system to notify job posters whose job postings may have been flagged. This is because, since our ML algorithm is not a 100% accurate, we would have cases of 'False Positives' wherein a true job posting would be marked as fake. In these times we would want to allow the job posters to challenge the decision by providing evidence.
Immediate impact
Especially during but also after COVID-19, our application would aim to relieve vulnerable job seekers from the fear of fake job adverts. By doing so, we would be re-focusing the time spent by job seekers onto job postings that are real, and hence, increase their chances of getting a job. An immediate consequence of this would be decreasing traffic onto fake job adverts which would hopefully, discourage scammers from posting fake job adverts too. Police departments don’t have the resources to investigate these incidents, and it has to be a multi-million-dollar swindle before federal authorities get involved, so the scammers just keep getting away with it. Hence our solution saves millions of dollars and hours of investigation, whilst protecting the workers from getting scammed into fake jobs and misused information.
What's next for Providing legit job postings
We wish to completely automate the notification system built using 'Twilio'.

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/good-news-app | Inspiration
We were tired of only seeing gloomy news and wanted to fix the problem.
What it does
It gives a news feed of articles from around the world, then lets you filter them by their sentiment, letting you filter out the bad news if you just don't want to read it
How we built it
We built it with a flask backend. We got news data from newsapi, then used google-cloud natural language api to analyse the sentiment of each article. These are stored, then when the data is retrieved, so is the sentiment score, allowing the news articles to be filtered
The app itself is built in react-native with expo cli to allow for easy building for android and ios.
Challenges we ran into
Finding a decent source for all the news proved to be challenging, and eventually we had to settle with newsapi despite it only returning 100 results for certain queries when using a developer account
Learning react-native proved a bit ambitious for 24 hours, the end result could probably look better
There also turned out to be not very much good news at the moment, meaning when filtering, the number of articles decreased dramatically.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The app does allow you to filter news articles by their sentiment, and it works well in general, when filtering you can browse the news with far less worry
What we learned
We learned to use react-native and how to manage databases and manipulate data.

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/digital-thoughts | Inspiration
Our team was inspired from struggles in our own isolation. The Covid-19 pandemic has left us isolated in our homes -- where the days melt into one. The lack of routine and regulation exacerbated by the pandemic has increased our isolation, stress levels, and negative emotions. We wanted to build Digital Thoughts to combat these concerns.
What it does
Digital Thoughts has two primary objectives:
Its main aim is to help people remember and differentiate between each day through a dynamic journal user interface
It also aims to encourage people to test out new activities everyday to foster connection and engagement
## How we built it
The web app was built with a React.js frontend and Java backend connecting to a MongoDB database.
Challenges we ran into
Remote working made designing, implementing and debugging the code more difficult. Also our Home machines weren't as good as PC's provided by our University. Finally, different Timezones amongst our members made coordinating harder. Also, we had challenges and couldn’t finish the entire prototype in time.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that this was the first hackathon for two of our group members, which was an amazing experience. We also collaborated well and supported each other in achieving our goals.
What we learned
We learned that collaboration and delegating tasks is super important early on in the process. We also learned it’s most effective to focus on our areas of strength during the development.
What's next for Digital thoughts
We will continue to work on Digital Thoughts to hopefully fully create a working web app! We believe in our idea and want it to bring meaningful impact to people during this time.

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/ardia | Inspiration
With almost half of the year gone by with many of us having no choice but to stay at home, the use of social media platforms and online communication has definitely seen an exponential increase. While many of us have a good circle of friends or a helpful community that we can interact with during these trying times, there are many others who don't have the luxury. Maybe they are too shy, or they are going through a lot of stress and are afraid to speak out to others, or they are just really lonely in general, we don't discriminate. So, Ardia was made to help combat this. While it may seem like an ordinary social media platform at first, it is actually more interesting and helpful towards those who are not able to interact or have people to support them (in this case, more emotionally and verbally) as there are no
actual users/viewers
on that the platform aside from the person who is using it.
We believe that a constant supply of uplifting comments, memes, and _ likes _ on the post will definitely cheer up the main user. Thus, hopefully helping to improve their overall mood, keeping them entertain and increase their confidence and who knows, they may soon get the confidence to open up more to their peers around them and are able to communicate and be more sociable when they are able to get out of the house when the time is right.
Building Process
We decided to use Android Studios to create this application - one of us has had some experience using this software before while one of us did not. So we took a few hours to look through example code and documentation to get a basic foundation of the process of app development using Java in AS. Next, we separated the tasks between us, some of these tasks included:
login page (linked with Firebase)
post feed
generation of comments and likes and messages
wholesome and cute memes page
We both had to deal with the frontend and backend work for each of our parts and in the end, compile all the code onto one system and debug it.
Challenges
as the two of us were based in two separate countries (UK and Malaysia), it was harder to collaborate and compile the code as we did not have the luxury of being able to just help one another instantaneously due to the lack of each other's in-person's presence.
on the bright side, this does expose us to the world of remote working and it was a good opportunity for catching up.
The implementation of certain aspects of Cloud Firebase onto the system was tricky and required hours of debugging - this was due to the fact that we were relatively new to this service but we managed to pull through in the end

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/cutter-bot | Inspiration
It helps people to easily live in the modern world where new information is created and posted every second. For our generation, it is very important to be able to easily understand, whether to watch or read something or not, to stay up-to-date and competitive. We thought that our project can help bloggers, newsmakers to get descriptions for their posts and videos faster and help different groups of users to distinguish between materials they really need and clickbait. Personally, we face this problem every day, when we have to find articles and videos relevant to our study field.
What it does
After the user sends URLs to articles or videos, the bot processes it, gives summaries of materials sent and voice it
How I built it
First of all, the user gets the opportunity to use the bot through the interface of the Telegram messenger - a specially created @CutVideoBot bot.
Onboadring introduces the message into the user's course and adds it to mongoDB as a new user, assigns the corresponding state to it.
As soon as the user sends a link to any material or YouTube video, we:
If it's just a link to the site
We load the text from the site using tldextract
We process the text for extra characters through html2text
We send for reduction in DeppAI
Synthesizing voice using Google-text-to-speech (gtts)
Change and speed up audio through pydub
Add the resulting summary to MongoDB
We send the user the summary text and the audio of this text
If this is a YouTube link
We load automatically generated subtitles video in any language
Unload the full text of the subtitles and send to DeepAI for reduction
Compare the remaining lines after reduction with subtitles and segments of fragments using fuzzywuzzy
Download video from YouTube via pytube
Cut the video into fragments and glue it using moviepy
Add the resulting summary to MongoDB
Save and send the user a video summary
Next, we again expect from the user a link to the following material.
Challenges I ran into
It was quite difficult to learn how to distinguish between links to articles and videos
I had problems with Telebot library
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I'm very proud of the fact that we together finished the work in time, created a thing that will help people to stop reading unnecessary materials only because of the interesting name of articles/videos. It's also inspiring that bloggers will be able to create short introductions for their materials automatically.
What I learned
I have never made bots in my life. It was very interesting to learn how to do it, develop frontend part of the project, especially after interruption of the use of Python for almost one year.
What's next for Cutter Bot
We want to improve the quality of summaries and learn how to get a good voice for our sound part of answer. It would be also cool to implement things that will let people get their answers in turn.

Inspiration
The COVID-19 quarantine gave us the opportunity to make this application. We wanted a way to try out activities you might like and challenge yourself against friends.
How we built it
This is a Flutter mobile application. It makes use of Google Firebase:
Firebase Authentication to track users
Firebase Realtime Database to store user data and challenges for the app
Firebase Hosting for hosting images to show in the app
Firebase Cloud Messaging to send push notifications to users every day to remind them there is a new challenge
We also made use of the Domain.com free domain offer and Firebase Custom Domain so we can get the images from the Hosting to show in the app with a more friendly domain name.
Challenges we ran into
We found it a bit hard to learn how to use Firebase properly and efficiently, especially integrating Firebase with Flutter using the pub packages.
We also wanted to use Mongo Atlas but had troubles with the Flutter unofficial package for it so had to switch later.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
The design of the application. Learning how to use Firebase properly.
What I learned
How to use Firebase to manage the backend of the application.
What's next for Challenge Shuffle
Users would be able to submit their own challenges, as well as challenging their friends. A leaderboard could also be implemented.

Faced with the health emergency linked to the coronavirus pandemic, several nations find themselves facing financial difficulties, and between everyday worries and the fight against the pandemic, ensuring the necessary funds for each need is a real problem. several questions. One of the members of our team noticed this need a long side with small businesses and different companies suffering to market their products with this current pandemic. That's how came the idea of an application for the world good that will collect donations from people by just watching advertisements of different companies’ products !
What it does
Carety is a mobile application that gives the user the chance to donate without spending money, How? Simply by watching several advertising videos for different products and services, in order of razing, and collecting funds to fight covid 19, these funds will appear to the user as objectives to achieve, like (Buying sterilizers and masks, building ventilator a maybe even hospitals).
Our application provides the following functionalities:
The system must allow the user to register on the platform anonymously for follow-up.
The system must allow the user to view the advertisements of the various sponsors and products.
The system must allow the user to visualize the objectives to be achieved in order to fight the pandemic.
The system must allow the user to view an anonymous contribution ranking. (Ranking according to the number of views of publications).
The system must allow the user to win symbolic prizes.
How we built it
We were a team of 4 members in the hackathon, we worked together, we first set the idea and the functionalities then we divided the tasks between us, we worked with recent technologies. On one hand, for the backend of the application we had a member who worked with NodeJS framework : ExpressJS and MongoDB for the database, since it is an API we used postman to treat the different requests and to share request schemas, and for managing the database, we used Atlas MongoDB, a global cloud database service. On the other hand, tow members took charge of the frontend of the application by using for that Flutter. Regarding the design, our designer began by preparing the WireFrame to ensure a good UX. Then he worked on the UI of the interfaces using Material Design System. In parallel, and whenever he finished an interface, the work continued on the frontend of this interface. To collaborate between us we used GitHub, we deployed our work via Heroku using Auto Deploy method. Finally we submitted our work via a GitHub repository.
Challenges we ran into
Among the challenges we encountered there was the tools to use, especially for the frontend where we used Flutter, a technologie which we weren’t that comfortable with, but during the hackathon we learned new stuff about it and it was a nice experience as the final application was quite similar to the prototype. Also the validation of the functionalities of the idea where we were not all convinced about each other suggestions, so we spent more time in order to make the necessary modifications so that these ones become clear for the whole team.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
To be able to develop our project throughout this short period of time, by learning new technologies in order to code the different functionalities of our application.
What we learned
We managed to develop and implement a usable application by a whole network, ensuring the synchronization between the Contributors and the different provided Ads and objectives. However, it should be noted that some of us did not have all the necessary tools, so during this hackathon we developed new skills like the "learning by doing" strategy. It was a very good experience.
What's next for Carety
We want to improve our project performances by using Docker to automate our DevOps and run our API very quickly and anywhere, develop a notification system and launch the application as soon as possible so that it can help in collecting funds to fight the current crisis and all the upcoming needs all over the world.
Remark
Signin functionality is made properly but we have just skipped it (We passed an existing account) so that we make it easier for you to use the full version of the application.

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/digiplant | The XCode Project Storyboards
Inspiration
Over the last few weeks, family and friends have turned to gardening to help them get through isolation and social distancing, some taking on very ambitious gardening projects. We thought that using paper or card flags to signify which plant or seed was which was impractical, and thought it would be easier if you could scan the plant pot with your phone, and it would tell you what it was. We also thought that, using calendar integration and API calls, we could give the gardener useful information as to when they should be watering their plants, and what conditions the seed should be planted in, for example full sunlight, or partial shade.
What it does
It's an IOS app. It lets you add plants as you plant them to a list of plants in your garden, and associate a type (species) to this plant by searching the USDA plants database. The app then fetches information about the plant from the database, and you can view useful information about any plant you have added. The app also has a watering mode - as you're watering areas of your garden, you can put the app into a mode where you can scan an RFID tag after watering, and it will add that plant to a list of watered plants, and update the last water date for that plant, so you can keep track of what needs watering when, and not miss out any plants or groups of plants. You can also manage the plant list without RFID using search, ie you can search for a plant instead of scan it. You can build custom groups of plants; these could be areas of the garden, groups of pots or similar plant types.
How I built it
We used XCode to build the app, with the old Storyboarding system instead of SwiftUI. We used REST APIs in Swift to interface with the USDA plant database; parsed and cleaned this data using a Python script, and stored it in the Core Data storage system by parsing a CSV file in Swift.
Challenges I ran into
We initially tried to format RFID chips using Arduino + MFRC522 chips, but this didn't work because the reader / writer shield kept losing connection to the chip mid write operation. We also didn't realise RFID/ NFC scanning was a feature restricted to premium developer accounts on xcode (£80!), which is why the key selling point of this idea isn't actually implemented! This was annoying, but it gives us some more to do for this app in the future. In addition, the original database we planned to use to get plant features (Trefle.io) went down at about 10pm Saturday, so we had to change our plans for the API.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
How far we got! Starting from no iOS app development experience at all, we're happy with how much we learned and what we managed to build, even if we didn't fully flesh out the implementation. Figuring out XCode and overcoming the relentless crashes with bad exception / error codes was tedious but hugely satisfying, and definitely worth picking through hundreds of stack overflow threads.
What I learned
Neither of us had ever touched XCode or Swift before, or even built front end applications, so we had to learn the entire ecosystem and how storyboarding works. This meant a lot of time was spent figuring out how to make buttons work, and how to pass variables between ViewControllers. However, the instant feedback of GUI building is very satisfying, and XCode does this very well. We also learned a lot about dealing with conflicts over git, and working concurrently on the same document efficiently, including using branches to maximise productivity.
What's next for Digiplant
Keep expanding and adding capabilities - add NFC and RFID systems, and maybe build a physical plant pot system to easily attach the tags to the plants. We could even use moisture sensors to automatically relay soil humidity levels to the application, which could compare those humidity levels with the recommended ones for that species of plants from the API, which would mean you wouldn't even have to think about which ones you needed to water, and would avoid wasting water excessively watering plants that can survive on much dryer soil. If we went in this direction, we'd probably look at setting up a remote server to handle this and other application features. We're probably going to be stuck at home for a while longer with a whole lot of gardening to do, so lots of time to improve!

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/give-gap | With GiveGap, you can Give Back.
Inspiration
Many people want to support a good cause, however a lot of them do not know where to start. There are hundreds of charities out there, and it can be difficult to visit the individual charities' websites and do the research. That's why we made GiveGap, which allows users to find charities that are right for them by answering a few simple questions.
If the process of finding a good charity is easy, it would encourage people to donate more.
What it does
Users are asked to give their preferences on five categories : Cause (e.g. Animals), SubCause (e.g. Animal Shelters), Region, Religious Affiliation, and Years Since Establishment. Based on this information, GiveGap provides a list of charities that the user is likely to be interested in. It is intuitive and easy to use.
How We built It
We used Java to build the basis of the quiz, and made it into app form with XML and Android-Studio.
Challenges We ran into
As we are all in different time zones and countries it was difficult to help each other when we came across problems and collaborate quickly but we used the technology we were familiar with to help us to our advantage.
As well as that, there was some difficulty in linking the pages of the app so that they ran smoothly, but after locating small bugs in the code we managed to overcome this.
Accomplishments that We're proud of
We divided the task well and each member was assigned an area they were perhaps not familiar or comfortable with which gave us opportunity to learn.
What We learned
We learned how to use MongoDB and access files on java however the time constraints meant that we had to have a simpler approach with our project and so decided not use MongoDb in the final draft.
What's next for Give Gap
As of now GiveGap is connected to a list of hypothetical charities. It would be the first step to put in the data of existing charities.
More Questions: We can include categories such as the political leanings of charities, how their budget is spent, and the size.
Addition of smaller sub-causes: Each SubCause can be divided into even smaller sub categories. (e.g. Animal shelters into Dog Shelters, Cat Shelters, and Other.)
Profitability
Charities could pay a small amount of money in exchange for more exposure.
Additional Features
We can add a separate page within the app that recommends petitions or activist groups that users might want to fund, based on a similar quiz.

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/covidcatch | Catch gloves, masks, sanitisers. Keep the distance and stay away from the virus.
Inspiration
We wanted to make a fun game in the beginning, but then we thought about how we can make it useful considering the world COVID situation. We see so many videos on the internet of moms trying to make their children wash their hands by singing or other fun interactive ways, and we thought that considering kids and young teenagers like playing mobile games, this is a catchy useful game that can teach you what are the good ways of protecting yourself from the virus.
What it does
Your goal as the player is to achieve the highest score possible! You control a set of hands (or masked face, depending on player selection) that moves horizontally across the screen, catching any falling objects that land in its grasp. Catch a mask, hand sanitizer, or pair of gloves and your score will increase by 1. However, catch a virus or less than 2 meters sign and the two people on each side of the screen will move a step closer to each other! Let them get too close and it’ll be GAME OVER! An integrated scoreboard on the main menu allows you to play against your friends, or even yourself, tracking the highest scores in any given session
How we built it
We made a catching isolation-inspired videogame using Python and its diverse Pygame libraries.
Challenges I ran into
It was our first time working in Pygame. Moreover, of course, it was very hard collaborating online. We are three friends that come from different places in the world and we just share screens and split the work.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We are proud of making it look so good and finishing it in time. We are proud to make it such a catchy interesting game that can be useful for many.
What I learned
How to use Python and Pygame, and wonderful fun games we can do
What's next for COVIDcatch
We can publish it to PlayStore or AppStore so that this catchy game can be of help for young people quarantining. We plan on introducing leaderboards, for people more experienced in protecting from the virus to be on top. Sound effects, better animation, a level system with speeds, and more virus threats falling off. There are lots of things we can introduce to make it even more interesting and catchy. We can have a section of learning, where young children can see how every object helps - a mask, gloves, sanitizer, and how not keeping distance, not avoiding crowded places can be dangerous.

It's my friend's birthday next week and I wanted to do something special and unique.
What it does
PostcARds is a system to allow users to create customized augmented reality postcards.
How I built it
Unity, echoAR, Vuforia Cloud Targets
How it works
The sender uses the app to set what they want to show on their postcard, this is then uploaded to the echoAR data API.
The sender then sends the postcard to the recipient, and then the recipient can login to the viewer, and view their AR postcard.
By using echoAR, we could have potentially limitless options for customization since PostcARds uses their content delivery network (CDN) to hotload 3D models on the fly, which could be added without updating the app, and without using any space on their phone.
Additionally, using vuforia cloud targets means that the image recognition model isn't embedded directly into the app, meaning also limitless possible postcards could be recognized, and also added without updating the app, and the same space saving benefits.
Challenges I ran into
The Unity gameobject UI menu disappeared, so initially I built the UI by hand using components only. Eventually I got fed up with that and remade the project which re-enabled UI gameobjects. I suspect this is an issue with enabling incremental GC or standard frame pacing in Unity.
echoAR fails to load models on android - due to issues with the shaders. Works properly in the unity editor window, and looking into it, it seems to be an issue with one of the libraries echoAR depends on and not echoAR itself. To work around this I ended up using my laptop for the final demo instead.
Didn't have enough time to write it to allow you to have multiple models on one card, so each card is limited to one custom 3D model at a time per user at the moment.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
You can set unique AR models per user, and it saves this to the echoAR cloud backend.
What I learned
echoAR
What's next for PostcARds
Allow multiple models, allow placement of models to form a scene, for example a campsite.

Coronavirus tech handbook is a crowdsource information about the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus. It was developed at Newspeak House, a hackspace for politics in London, England. It aims to provide a space for technologists, civic organizations, public & private institutions, researchers, and specialists of all kinds to collaborate on a rapid and sophisticated response to the coronavirus outbreak and subsequent impacts. As one of the volunteers of this handbook, we created a chatbot that takes content from the handbook allowing users to conversationally ask questions about the many topics that are of points of interest during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This tool is currently a stand-alone web-app and can also be deployed on Facebook - increasing awareness amongst people and allowing the handbook community to get critical feedback on what sort of data users are searching for.
What it does
The web-application connects the handbook community to it's end-users creating demand and supply of crowdsourced information - where the consumers give valuable insights to the librarians of the handbook to added material that is verified and vetted by the community. The users pick the category they want to query and proceed to ask their questions. If their query is not satisfied, they can report their question to the handbook community helping them understand what sort of information users are searching for.
Every query is linked to a Whatsapp group that helps users connect to people from the community or other people of the same interest - this helps bring people together and provide a platform where they can discuss their queries with other people.
How we built it
We built the application on Django. We built a python scraper to convert the raw data to a structured JSON. Using sentence transformers, we then created embeddings for every heading created by the tech-book moderators. The user types in their query after selecting a category (as of now, we have Mental-health, unemployment, retail, data-tools, and education) it gets embedded and the chatbot tries to find an appropriate response which is shown on the Django chatbot.
Challenges we ran into
Building the scraper to connect the tech-book is challenging
We could not finish the messenger (Facebook) API on time so we made a simple Django interface (chatbot)
Improving similarity matching. Some queries do not match articles accurately - we are currently collecting more data from the coronavirus tech handbook community
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Connecting the user with our community is our priority. When a user asks a question, they are given the option of joining a Whatsapp group which has people that are interested in the same topics the user queried about. We believe this will bring people together to share their experiences or queries.
Structuring the document was/is challenging. Once we converted 5 categories, we used the Bert tokenizer for our chatbot which turned out to be less accurate. After exploring may solutions to match queries with responses, we finally improved on our accuracy although there is a lot of room for improvement.
We're also proud of our clean interface!
What we learned
Structuring documents is generally a hard task and we are working with the tech-book community to help covert data to a JSON.
What's next for Community-powered search engine | COVID-19
We're working with the coronavirustechhandbook community to improve our chatbot.
We're also working on expanding the platforms the chatbots are accessible on (Facebook, Twitter, etc)
Sphinx search to better match results.

10,209 | https://devpost.com/software/immunenews | Inspiration
A couple of weeks ago, our team spent the week clearing out our flat in Edinburgh as our lease was coming to the end. During the time spent there, we didn't watch any TV or listen to any radio. This short break away from the media helped us to briefly forget about the global pandemic, isolation, and Covid-19 as a whole; we noticed our attitudes and general mental health greatly benefitting from it. This feeling gave way to an idea. We should be able to read the news without the over-saturation of virus based articles. It can sometimes feel impossible to stay up to date on current affairs without being constantly reminded that we're living through a global pandemic. ImmuneNews helps you briefly escape it.
What it does
ImmuneNews gathers news from multiple news sources and only shows you articles that are determined to be virus-free: immune articles.
How we built it
We used
News API
to access live news articles in a JSON format. These were then filtered by checking for banned words (coronavirus, covid-19, virus etc.) in the title and first 200 characters of the article. We then built a website using flask on which you can browse recent immune articles. This site was then hosted using Google Cloud on a custom domain.
Challenges we ran into
Initially our hope was to use the Google Cloud NLP API to determine not only whether or not an article was related to Coronavirus but whether or not it was a positive news article. Given our time frame we decided to start with a naive implementation and build on it later. We were surpised by how successful the naive implementation was at filtering out coronavirus articles effectively so decided to leave it as is.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
This was the 2nd website we had made and despite its simple interface we are pleased with the results and what we achieved as a pair in 24 hours.
What we learned
Coming from a backend background we both learnt lots about frontend web development. HTML and Javascript is new to both of us so learning and improving those skills has been a challenge but enjoyable.
What's next for ImmuneNews
There are many directions ImmuneNews could take. User inputs to choose category, date, source and authour would be the clear next steps to take to enhance the user experience. We would also like to implement determining whether or not the news is positive or not, this would involve getting stuck into the NLP API which we would be excited to do. We also want to explore using it to improve on our naive implementation which does still let articles related to Coronavirus slip through.

Wishing to make more friends during these difficult times? Looking for an outlet to talk about your feelings and receive thoughtful responses? Why not find a Quill Pal!
What it does
Quill is a
full-stack web application where 21st century pen pals, or Quill Pals, write and respond thoughtfully to letters.
Quill has three main functionalities:
Write an anonymous letter about anything on your mind
Respond to anonymous letters thoughtfully
Make Quill Pals by continuing to respond to letters
Here's the catch:
Users can only respond to / send 3 letters per day.
Why does your Quill ink dry out after 3 letters? Because each letter must count. Quill is not a messaging app - it is a thoughtful letter app.
How I built it
We used
Django
for the backend and
Bootstrap
for the CSS Framework.
Challenges I ran into
Time was our biggest hurtle - we wished we had more time to add views to the app and implement authentication.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
2 of our group members had never built a Django web app before! This is the first time all group members made Django multiple views with POST and GET requests.
We also made an algorithm that randomizes the letters that users can respond to!
What I learned
Everything was easier with Django... we are excited to use the web framework for future projects!
