Inspiration
We wanted to build a portfolio website that matched our Pod pride as Python Pythons, which is why we went for the jungle-inspired look!
What it does
A portfolio website showcasing our team's profiles, hobbies, work experiences, and projects. We also have a cool map to show call the unique locations we have visited all over the globe! Our priority was for the site to be modular so that anyone could add their own information and showcase their profiles using this template. Therefore, all personal information is extracted from a JSON file where end-users could fill out the required fields.
How we built it
- Flask
- Jinja
- Folium
- HTML
- CSS
- JavaScript
- Bootstrap V5.0
Challenges we ran into
- Setting up flask server
- Folium not insertable with Jinja templates
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Sticking completely to the theme(using background, and custom font)
- Being comfortable with branches, and merging conflicts
- Following good practices for naming and reviewing PRs
What we learned
- Using Flask and Jinja templating when working on this project
- How to use Folium for our map framework
- Customizing Bootstrap elements for a cohesive theme
What's next for Team Jungle
Connect to a database, and automate the process for making updates to hobbies, experiences, and locations visited so that users can add information to the site through a graphical user interface.
