Inspiration
Happy hour is a popular thing to do in San Francisco because everything is normally so expensive.
What it does
Happy Happy Hour is just like a normal happy hour, but with the added benefit of reducing food waste from local businesses! Businesses can post a date, time, location, and deal for what would normally go to waste (ex. not-as-fresh bagels are 50% off), and users can enjoy saving money and the planet.
How we built it
We created a database to store restaurant information (name, address, deal). We created a seed file to populate our database, and used SQLAlchemy to connect this information to our Flask server. We used the TomTom API to display restaurant location and the TomTom markers and pop-up features to display restaurant information.
Challenges we ran into
We ran into challenges with almost everything but learned a lot from it.
Accomplishments that we are proud of
We are all new engineers and we are so proud of all the progress we made in such a short amount of time! (This was our first hackathon.)
What we learned
We learned debugging strategies, Javascript syntax, how to work on a team, and how to read documentation.
What's next for Happy Happy Hour
We want to add user logins and to use the TomTom API to route users from their location to their chosen destination.
