Inspiration
Beginner's story: Coming to Hack Duke, I really didn't have any experience coding. So, this project is simply a walkthrough project that an instructor here at Hack Duke walked us through that uses google api in our web page.
What it does
It's an alert timer where if a person is in danger, they could type in a phone number and start a timer,
How I built it
By using visual studio code, we created three files: a css, html, and javascript file
Challenges I ran into
Getting used to the syntax was quite an obstacle. Over the seven hours we worked on this, I began to understand javascript and my fascination grew.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I'm glad that I came to Hack Duke and learned a new skill set. Now, I have a lot of ideas that I want to create. For example, I want to create a web app that utilizes the google and twitter api to create a live stream hotspot map for natural disasters all around the world.
What I learned
I learned to code in javascript and some other languages as well.
What's next for TroubleTimer
I'll probably not further my TroubleTimer project, but I have other projects/ventures that I would like to
