What are you building for the Makers Festival? 😻

Question

Hey everyone! Since we are a few days into the submissions period, I thought it would be cool to ask what people are building? Maybe we can give feedback as a group to each other 😄

Anna Grigoryan · Accepted Answer

Hey makers! I want to submit my community finder: https://community.engineeringrowth.co

It's a service where people can find any community depending on their interests.

I built this to help find places to connect with new people during this time. I'm automating some processes now, so the service can live it's separate life :)

Helen Huang · Answer

We're making a place where folks can get bite-sized headlines of good news, an increasing recovery count, reminders for them to take it easy, stretch, etc, etc. It's meant to be a reminder for mindfulness during these tough times. :)

Just submitted the first MVP of the COVID-19 Integrated Cooperation Visualizer!

https://leapforward.us/covid-needs-visualizer

It's a global tool to visualize all the needs of individuals, families, communities, states and cities arising from COVID and the massive shift in life and work that it brings. We are open-sourcing the software and crowd-sourcing the data, and targeting needs ranging from basic/physical to emotional, mental health, intellectual, social, etc...

The goal is to bring attention to the gaps and overlaps in the many many solutions that have been popping up (tons of online yoga classes, but no emotional support for families for example) and inspire us to work together to help each other. There's no profit model; this is 100% service-focused.

Our Stack is React.js with lightweight Ruby API backend. Prototyping with Airtable for data collection. We're working on launching our first (very quick and dirty) MVP next week, then collaborating with others to link in existing databases, better visualizations, locale-based search and crowdsourced data capture.

Let me know if you want to help or know someone who would be interested!

@aaronoleary just want to clarify the guidelines. I can submit a product that is created during the Makers Festival? So I can't submit a product that already exists?

Answer

Hello everybody!
My name is Charles and for the festival I am building a platform for visual and educational mini books 
https://bookbites.app

My hope with this website is to create a place where visual learners have a place to quickly learn about different subjects. Right now I have some content on the subject of UI and UX Design as well as fitness, I am planning on adding more categories to the website.

If you create visual educational mini books and would like join the platform let me know :)

Yan Aik Teck · Answer

Hi all, you guys are creating amazing things! :)

I created 9 phone case designs, inspired by Pantone, to remind us to follow WHO guidelines to #StayHome, #WearAMask, and keep ourselves in #SafeHands during this period.

10% of the sales goes to the WHO's COVID-19 Response Fund. Check out the designs here https://instagram.com/pandemicphonecase

Any feedback and comment is appreciated :)
