Atlanta Hidden Gems - Group project for DigitalCrafts

Primary LanguageJavaScript

=======

Atlanta GEMS (developed under codename: Order 66)

This project is a front end interface to accept a post (a gem) from a user. The gems are stored in firebase, and retrieved and displayed by to the visitor.

This is a GROUP collaboration with: Nathan Reese Matthew Marberry Ian Gornall (aka the Legion of Doom)

This project requires Firebase Realtime Database, Firebase Auth, and google maps/search API keys. If you wish to run it, put your keys in keys.js and go to town! (see what I did there? Cause it's about Atlanta)

What problem motivated this app

A visitor to Atlanta will not know what unique sights/venues/etc the locals are passionate about. Plus they don't want to just wander idly around the city and get stabbed or accosted by our horde of zombies.

Who are our users

Visitors to the area, curious to see the highlights of the city. Residents of the city that want to share what makes Atlanta a GEM.

Elevator pitch

You are in Atlanta only briefly, a visit or perhaps business. Probably because you flew in here on your way someplace better. You want to know what to see here, and you want it from people who love the city, not some commercial crap.
