A React.js based proof of concept for an urban farming support tool.
Heavily inspired by John Deere's Operations Center.
The site can be accesed here: https://main--myfirstsparkhacksgarden.netlify.app/
The John Deere track at SparkHacks tasked us with, "proposing a technological solution aimed at a sustainable innovation and enviromentally friendly practices."
Both the prompt and the sponsor inspired us to develop a tool which would encourage residents of urban areas to take sustainability into their own hands by effectively lowering the barrier of entry of gardening by providing information that would be useful to first time planters through a website.
We plan to expand the app with usage of 3rd-party APIs on the back-end and expansion of UI/UX.
- We plan to fully implement APIs to allow for checking the weather given a ZIP code and also add a sun exposure widget. In addition, we also hope to add support for inputting anywhere in the United Ststes of America.s
