Inspiration
We were inspired to make this website due to the fact that not many people know about space and space travel.
What it does
The website allows users to enter questions, which other users can answer. Furthermore, users may read articles pertaining to space information which users may ask about on the website.
How we built it
We used HTML and CSS in order to format the website and its appearance. We also used Javascript, Python, and PHP to take in user input, store it into a database of tables containing user and Q/A information, and have the database interact with the website.
Challenges we ran into We were unable to have the database interact with the website, which did not allow for questions to be shown on the website. We also had trouble using certain software, such as web servers.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Although we struggled in creating an efficient and well-functioning website that smoothly interacts with a database, we were able to understand the basics of each new concept we learned.
What we learned
We learned exactly how databases are arranged and how they work, how scripting languages work as opposed to normal programming languages, and how to use multiple programming languages to create a project.
