FRUITS2

We solve the world's issue of boredom, and of even more importance, we offer a platform for quickly and painlessly finding fun facts about fruits.

Inspiration

Many of my friends are going on fruitarian diets.

What it Does

Vanquishes boredom whilst simultaneously educating the product's users of the wacky world of fruits.

How to Use it

On the home screen you can scroll down and click on story to find story behind this project, or one of 6 panels to enter a theme of fruits. Once you enter the theme, you can hover around a fruit until the words for the fruit appears, then when you hold down on your mouse, the full expansion of facts is free to read.

How We built it

We hard-coded all of the information with HTML and CSS. We were going to use an API, but our team didn't know how to code past a beginner level, so we had to keep it relatively simple so we could build a site.

Challenges we ran into

Organizing the team. We all came in as individuals do it took awhile for us to assemble.

Accomplishments that we are proud of

We were able to delegate tasks effectively, and managed to learn a "slam" effect for the home page.

What we learned

I learned how to use APIs effectively (outside of this project), as well as how to make artistic CSS effects.

Bugs we still need to fix

There are design features on the story page that can be stylistically improved. Also, at some pictures the wrong fruit names were used(the right facts). At times he words for certain fruits may not appear but more the most part eventually every fruit once the word appears and you hold down on the mouse does let the facts appear.

What's next for FRUITS2

We are going to expand to vegetables, then use APIs to get data that we can overlay onto our HTML web layouts. Once we master APIs, we'll expand to all types food, and then all kinds of drinks, and finally, to all things purchasable in the global economy, edible or otherwise.
