Inspiration

This was our first Hackathon! :) "Holiday Hacks" is our Inspiration. Holiday's can be tiresome when you are not ready for them, So we would like to bring you "Here for the Holiday's" which will make it easier to get ready for holiday's.

What it does

It fetches ecards from an API (which was made by one of our team members) to be used by the user to share with friends and family. It also gives information about upcoming holidays on different days and also the current holiday present and gift ideas to users.

How we built it

Using Reactjs ,Html ,CSS , Javascript, link(Holiday API), link(Edamam (Food) API),link(Holiday API), link(Festival API), Express, nodeJs

Challenges we ran into

While making this file, since we all are new to Mlh hackathons and React Js, we took time in fetching the APIs but later we were able to do it using axios

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Sarthak from our team created the API to fetch greetings randomly and Ecards (Right now it is a small database). Learning new things has always been an Accomplishment to us! So participating in our first hackathon is an accomplishment in itself!

What we learned

How to fetch API's in our React Projects. How to create nodeJs API using express How to use proxy in React in development environment, and use of build in Heroku deployment

What's next for Holiday Is Here

Next we need to Expand the API, if we want to push it to production.
