The full submitted description can be found here.
We scratched our idea in Figma, check the final designs at the design folder, and implemented everything in Flutter. The books and their text recognition were made with the Amazon Rekognition API and all the book data was fetched from the Google Books API.
To run the project, you need to have Flutter installed. If you don't have it installed, you can follow the instructions here.
After you have Flutter installed, you can clone the repository.
To use Rekognition API, create an access key by entering into your AWS account, search IAM and set up a new user. In the created user security credentials, create a new access key. Copy the access key and secret key and paste them .env file of app folder.
