The problem GrowMyGarden solves

We very well know that people are highly influenced by social media and the platform it provides ,so we have tried to merge social media essence with one of the severe environmental issue so that more awareness can be spreaded. As we know that enviornmental is degrading at an alarming rate and people being awared, but are still ignorant. We have many websites, organistations and volunteers working tirelessly to create awareness but no big changes have been made. Today, people are more into social media and entertainment stuff, they knowingly and unknowingly mimicking each other. So here, at our website we have followed the trend and tried to make it a habit to people to involve more into enviornment for example: Planting more trees. Just imagine, you and your friend has created account on our website and your friend posted one selfie of planting a tree. You and the other people around you, after watching this are more likely to mimick it. And the best part is in this mimicking process more trees will be planted. Hence, we contributed in benfiting environment. To make this process more fun for users we tried to create something called 'Virtual-Garden', where trees will appear as user ensures that he had planted tress in real. We have also given option to of donating like if you are too busy in your daily life, then you also donate money as well as seedlings, we will plant those for you and tree count will appear in your virtual garden. We have also given those usual social media functions to make it more user friendly and entertaining. We have tried to design our project to match the requirnments of users.

Challenges we ran into

Problems we faced:
1)We faced some challenges in making our website responsive for all computer screens.

  1. While making the design of our website, it was challenging to fit and align all components perfectly.
  2. We used git and Github for the first time , so we faced some difficulty while operating it.
  3. It was our first hackathon so it was a bit difficult to sit and work for such long hours.
    Solutions
  4. We tried different element of CSS, html, a bit javascript, media-query as well as Bootstrap Library.
  5. For this we used different elements and tags of HTML and CSS.
  6. We took refrences from youtube videos and documentation.
