Introducing

Generate Fake Cards with Fake People from a REST API and GRPC

Comment

Inspiration

Wanted to make a fun Hackathon Project using the technologies Flask. React and gRPC

What it does

It generates fake cards as JSON that the React Website can display. Example

How we built it

The Backend is built with gRPC, Flask and Python. The Website Frontend is built with ReactJS. The clients are built using Python and C#.

Challenges we ran into

  • Setting up gRPC
  • Getting the backend and frontend to work together
  • Getting the backend up 24/7 for easier testing.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Getting the React Website Completed and working with the Flask Endpoint
  • Getting a C# and Python gRPC Client working at the same time

What we learned

  • How to use makefiles
  • How to use Flask
  • The difficulties of using gRPC (Especially in Python)

What's next for Introducing

  • Getting more gRPC Clients in different languages
  • Extending what is on a card
