Inspiration

My younger sibling is a special needs student and due to remote learning, he was struggling a lot in school. He was not receiving as much assistance as he did in the classroom. Most importantly, he was having difficulty taking notes and difficulty in reading things so I thought of creating something that could help him and other kids who were having similar problems.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of:

I am proud of creating the whole website in such a time scrunch. In my opinion the design came out very well. . I'll definitely use it myself.

Challenges I ran in to:

I didn't have much experience in coding in javascript. II was a beginner in javascript but by the end of this hackathon, I was able to learn how to do various things with js. Also, I did not know how to save the notes for the note-taking web app so I had to read up a little on Web APIs and local storage which I then implemented into my project with the spech-to-text/text-to-speech.
