Motivation

We all wish to accomplish a lot of things. But sadly, most of these wishes don't come true because of a lack of motivation.

What it does

• It brings people with similar wishes to motivate each other for the collective feeling of "Accomplishment".
• The user adds his/her wishes in our app.
• The app searches the database for the groups with similar wishes and lets the user choose his/her best match.

What we did

We build a React.JS Web Application with the help of the Firebase platform to deploy the application.

Challenges we ran into

• Random quirks with React hooks and components
• Firebase front-back end integration
• Learning new SDKs, APIs, and frameworks

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Seamlessly integrated Firebase back-end and React.JS front-end
• Working across multiple timezones

What we learned

1. Firebase as a platform to build a React App
2. Learned how to work together as a team.
3. Learned not to give up even when we ran into roadblocks.
4. Learned how to innovate and bring ideas to life in a short period of time.

What's next for WeWish

1. A mobile application with the same functionality.
2. Group matching by incorporating Machine Learning

• People with multiple similar wishes have a higher chance of being in the same group
• Integration with other apps like Health/Fitness app for Fitness-related wishes.
