Timeline: Mar 2020
I attended cmd-f, Vancouver’s all female hackathon, on March 7 - 8, 2020, with 4 amazing friends! At the hackathon, I enjoyed learning about using Google Cloud. We were also delighted to win the “MLH Best use of Google Cloud” prize at the hackathon. Together, we developed a financial literacy web app game for children to teach them basic financial literacy concepts.
I worked on creating a serverless backend for our application. With one other friend, we wrote a REST API using Google Cloud Functions whose endpoints were configured using the Google Cloud Endpoints service. Our API communicated between a non-relational database created on Google Datastore, and the React frontend of our application.
