Inspiration

Some of our friends and teammates have had trouble finding parking spot, and it is a recurrent issue.

What it does

Administers the available parking spots in the parking space E2 (belonging to Tecnológico de Monterrey) and allows students to book them for a certain date and hour.

How we built it

Node.js was used as the server-side scripting framework to create the routes and handlers. Express.js simplified the creation of the web-app. PostgreSQL was used as the relational database management system to store and manage data. JavaScript was used on the client side for interactivity.

Challenges we ran into

Most of our team was experienced in backend, so learning how to connect it with the frontend made things hard halfway through the project.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating a practical reservation system for a parking lot

What we learned

We learned how to use routes that do not conflict with each other, designing user interfaces, and planning what technologies we can learn for next time.

What's next for TecSpot

Add an authentication API, move from HTML architecture to React.js, and create an admin log in.
