Inspiration

An easy to use fast calendar that isn’t overly complicated for people in business who are not very tech-oriented.

What it does

  • Allows a person to easily create an event for a given day and reminds them a few hours before the event time.
  • Help track events and schedule a workday or have control over the work environment

How we built it

We built it using Django, we made our own Calendar framework from scratch. It is a huge database with all the dates of the year assigned to all the months of the respectively and it is entirely self-sustainable and dynamic.

Challenges we ran into

A lot of challenges regarding the framework we were essentially making from the ground, had to rework the structure of the data tables a lot to make it fit our needs.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We have a lot of really interesting functions to help out of the presentation of the data being visualized. I.e the padding functions on either side of the calendar to make it symmetrical The Seeder script that will dynamically update the calendar for the current year’s calendar.

What we learned

Don’t make your own framework if you’re on a short time frame =)
