Inspiration
This project started out as an idea for a local gym to challenge its members to bet money against each other so that each person would be motivated to compete so as not to lose money.
What it does
The website starts out by connecting people around the world with goals similar to their own. With 6 different goals, each person decides how often they want to do their goal and what reward they want out of accomplishing this goal. We then look at challenges other people have posted and connect the new challenger with an existing challenge that meets their requirement or creates the challenge for others to see.
How I built it
I built the website using HTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL.
Challenges I ran into
I had trouble using PHP and MySQL because it was my first time using those languages
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
The website worked.
What I learned
I learned how to use PHP and MySQL.
What's next for Challenger
1) Once a person accepts a challenge, email both competitors that the competition has started and the details of the challenge such as Goal, Frequency, Incentive. 2) Add Bootstrap so that the website will work on mobile phones 3) Standardize the incentive using Venmo so that instead of a different reward for each challenge, it's just the amount that changes. (Right now, there are cash, point and volunteer hour incentives) 4) Have people upload images of themselves so that they are held accountable of their actions. (Right now they just choose yes or no)
