Challenges we ran into

First of all, we had our unit test running on the eve week of the hackathon. Since it's our last year at high school, so it becomes very important for us to give time to study. It was very difficult to manage time for the hackathon. We then started prepping for the hackathon just a day before the hackathon started. We had a very hard time thinking of a good idea and finally, we came up with this idea. We also had a very limited time in order to build the whole system from scratch and train the AI model, collect data sets. Our teacher at school helped us with the internet so that we could join hackathons even on college day.
We also faced a lot of errors in training the model, making the recommender engine, and integrating all the features into the map. It was the first time that we could make the frontend and backend so fast. We could not believe that we could make it within 2 days. That was really a great experience.
