What it does

Free Thyme is a web based application that utilizes the Google Calendar API to analyze and return a time when all members of a group are free.

How we built it

Google Calendar API, Flask, Python, HTML/CSS, JavaScript

Challenges we ran into

Using google Oauth2client to get the date and times of multiple users. With multiple users, we were able to create a larger list of all the busy times of multiple users. However, we struggled with calculating ACCURATE free times between multiple users.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Implementing Google Calendar API and gaining a better understanding of how the credentials system for the Google Cloud Platform works. We are proud to have developed a great-looking minimalistic front end, because none of us really knew html or CSS extensively.

What's next for Free Thyme

Implementation with Twilio. In addition to suggesting multiple times when multiple users are free. It would also prompt the user if they would want to mark the date in their google calendar.

I worked on developing support functions that were used to calculate "Free" time.
I also worked on translating the date & time information from google and converting it into data that we could manipulate and use. In addition to converting data into the format back into the format that google requires for the google calendar api
