How we built it
At Finance Plus+, we are proud to share our innovative approach to building a user-friendly and versatile platform. Our team utilized a combination of cutting-edge technologies, including Taipy, to create a seamless experience for our users.
Taipy: Your Web Application Builder: We leveraged Taipy, a powerful web application builder written in pure Python. Taipy allowed us to turn complex data and AI algorithms into full-fledged web applications effortlessly. With Taipy's Python-centric approach, we streamlined the development process and saved valuable time.
Python, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript: Our tech stack included a mix of Python, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create a dynamic and interactive user interface. Python's versatility and ease of use enabled us to handle backend processes efficiently, while HTML, CSS, and JavaScript worked hand-in-hand to craft an engaging and visually appealing frontend.
Machine Learning for Image Detection: To create the currency sorter feature, we harnessed the power of machine learning. Our image detection algorithms, trained on extensive datasets, enabled our platform to accurately identify the value of rupee notes when shown on camera. This technology opened up new possibilities for visually impaired individuals, making currency handling easier and more inclusive.
EJS (Embedded JavaScript): EJS was instrumental in simplifying the integration of dynamic data into our web pages. By embedding JavaScript directly into our HTML templates, we were able to render real-time stock analysis graphs and offer personalized financial insights to users.
Throughout the development process, we encountered various challenges, from fine-tuning image detection models to ensuring the security of user data. However, with our dedicated team and commitment to excellence, we overcame these hurdles and delivered a feature-rich platform that empowers users on their financial journey.
