Inspiration
Our inspiration for making this project is to help out WeCommunity with their goals. As any company grows in customer base, they have to accommodate for such changes in their application as well. We wanted to assist with this process
What it does
This application allows seamless storage of drives, and a dashboard for volunteers and donors. Users are able to sign up as organizers or volunteers. Organizers can create drives for future donors to see and volunteers are able to help out with these events. To help with drives related to items given, there is a barcode scanner in the volunteer dashboard. Donors can donate to WeCommunity
How we built it
We built it using react, vite, geoapify for the user's location, css.
Challenges we ran into
We ran into multiple challenges, one of them being making the distance algorithm work using geoapify for the location. It involved complex mathematics and was a major roadblock in making this application
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud of getting most of the functionality that we were looking for. We were especially proud of adding in a brand new barcode scanner to help out volunteers.
What we learned
We learned how to use QuaggaJS, which is what was used for the barcode scanner.
What's next for WeCommunity Drive
Next, we will add donations for individual events instead of directly to WeCommunity
