Inspiration

What inspired us to create FloSTEM is the idea of impacting younger generations to have the passion and intellectual drive to develop solutions that will benefit our future through STEM innovation and discovery.

What it does

FloSTEM, a web application, sprouts students' curiosity and excitement in STEM through a pixelated fantasy-themed assessment. In this assessment, the user answers various questions. Each answer choice contains specific attributes that will determine which STEM category best fits the student.

How we built it

For the front-end development, we utilized HTML/CSS and Javascript. We used SQL, SSMS, and .NET for the back-end development. Our designs were created in Aseprite.

Challenges we ran into

We initially had several creative ideas we wanted to implement into our project. However, we had to narrow them down due to the lack of hackathon experience and time constraints.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We managed to adapt and work under pressure in a time constraint.

What we learned

Through this event, we organized our project attentively, which led us to discover how to apply the Database First Approach, reverse engineer a database, and intertwine an algorithm to front-end development.
