Inspiration for Application

The paradox of choice - An observation showing that too many options makes decision making harder and more stressful. A phrase that perfectly summarizes so many of our wardrobes. We have so many different variations in clothes, and we have to take in account style, and the weather, and not waste too much time all the same.

With App-arel we streamline that process, using your very own wardrobe we'll pick and match the right outfit for you, staying up to date with trends, and keeping in mind the weather.

Inspiration for Data Analysis

These days, data is one of the most important things to keep in mind of. Good data paired with good analysis, can reveal many interesting things to us, from a business and personal perspective. Sourcing e-commerce clothing review data from https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/nicapotato/womens-ecommerce-clothing-reviews We did an exploration of popular clothing trends and types.

How we built it

We created a wardrobe app that will create wardrobe options for you based on a temperature selection

Challenges we ran into

This was the first time we had used SwiftUI and was a very challenging learning curve due to a programming paradigm we weren't used to. By far the hardest challenge was since not all of us had Mac we used the SwiftPlaygrounds app with a laptop extension to supply us a keyboard. A non-professional IDE had plenty of problem with debugging and randomly dragging functions due ot it being a touchscreen

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating a simple concept MVP that is interactable with the user

What we learned

We learned many things from how state management works for an app to how certain components are used to control the current view proportion

What's next for App-arel

Adding live pulling from the weather API after more research into how get request can be done with SwiftUI. Maybe launching with a developer account to TestPilot to get user feedback
