Inspiration
We were very bored one weekend, and we needed to figure out what to do to entertain ourselves, so we came up with this idea of an "Event Handler!" It makes searching for various events very simple and accessible.
What it does
This webpage displays upcoming events in the Boston area. Click the arrow buttons in order to cycle through these events and choose whether or not to save them to your events list. Events will have the name, an image, its address, date/time, and a URL to buy tickets.
How we built it
We built our front-end using React, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. We used the Ticketmaster API for names, images, addresses, date/time, and URLs of events. We used Express.js and Supabase for our back-end.
Challenges we ran into
We ran into challenges navigating the API documentation, and debugging the various interactions between our separate components.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud to have integrated supabase into our website, and also create proper pagination. We are also very happy with our new design for our webpage!
What we learned
We improved our knowledge of API calls, supabase, express.js and react.
What's next for Boston EventHandler
We would like to add user authentication in order to have localized event lists, we may also incorporate AI into this project some time. We would also like to deploy our website some time.
