sdhacks-16

September 30 - October 2, 2016

University of California, San Diego

Inspiration

Coming from India, we are not really used to mixers. And we found it really hard to break the ice with people outside our social circles, when we go to Grads n Grub and other UCSD mixers. So we wanted to build something that helps people get more social.

What it does

Form intelligent groups to break the ice at the event. Emails can be sent through SparkPost, to the groups formed, which then serves as the medium for further activities. Features like double-blind messaging, polls, raffles provided by SparkPost, help in socializing.

How we built it

AnuglarJS, Bootstrap, Python-flask, Relational Data Store

Challenges we ran into

  1. Integrating SparkPost
  2. Processing input data and manipulating it

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Solved an easy problem with an effective solution which has a huge impact

What we learned

Teamwork, distribution of responsibilities, making use of individual strengths and finally time management

What's next for Go Caboodle

Organize events from Go Caboodle or integrate with EventBrite, Facebook events, etc.
