Inspiration

We wanted to make something space themed, and one of our teammates wanted to create a planet simulation! They were inspired by the vscode pets extension, and although we didn't know much about app extensions, we could create a website to mimic the job!

What it does

This app allows you to run a simplistic planet simulation. You can feed your planet elements to change its archetype, spawn asteroids and potentially create moons, and view realistic statistics about your planet!

How we built it

We used Streamlit to create our web application. In terms of libraries, we used matplotlib, random and pandas.

Challenges we ran into

Using the matplotlib library in Streamlit was quite difficult. We also wanted to add a dynamic timer for age, but it was unfeasible (we still have age; it just doesn't dynamically change).

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This was our first hackathon, and we didn't really know that much. However, we planned very well! We also believe that we did a great job doing defensive coding (checking to make sure that no edge cases throw errors).

What we learned

We learned a lot about Python in general! We also learned about the basics of web development (although we didn't really split our frontend and backend).

What's next for Tinyverse

We would like to add asteroid animations, and we'd also like to decorate the planet more based on its archetype (opposed to just the color; this may also require animations as well).
