The first challenge we faced was gathering our team. We did not have a central idea, making it difficult to unite the team on a topic. The brainstorming process led us to come up with several unique ideas, of which one would serve as the backbone of our project. Faced with multiple options, we had to make a crucial decision between various challenges and tracks, weighing the pros and cons to align with our team's strengths and goals. Initially, we considered using Taipy for our development needs, but after thorough deliberation, we pivoted to Streamlit, which better suited our project's requirements.
The integration of different features posed its own set of challenges, requiring us to combine and connect all components to ensure a seamless user experience. The task of integrating the backend with the frontend became significantly more manageable once we opted for Streamlit, simplifying our development process and enabling more efficient collaboration.
One of the most daunting challenges we faced was the need to stay awake and productive throughout the entire night, pushing our limits to keep the momentum going. Training our model presented another hurdle, as we had to handle various data types, necessitating a flexible approach to data processing and model training. Additionally, navigating and figuring out the nuances of the NSA platform proved to be a complex task. It required us to delve deep into its documentation and features, testing our problem-solving skills and adaptability.
Overcoming these obstacles demanded a combination of perseverance, teamwork, and caffeine in our approach. We tackled each challenge head-on, leveraging our collective skills and resources, and learning from each problem and setback. This resilience and adaptability ultimately led to the successful completion of our project, embodying the spirit of innovation and collaboration.
