[Wexler, Louis, Peter, Ray, and Egon all watch the prosecuting attorney being carried by one of the Scoleri brothers outside the courtroom] Judge Wexler: [wailing] Ohhh. . . Dr. Peter Venkman: You're next, bubbles. Judge Wexler: [screams] ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT! I rescind the order! Case dismissed! Louis Tully: Hooray, we won the case! Judge Wexler: Now do something!
— Ghostbusters II, 1989Last week I participated in CalgaryHacks 2022, the annual hackathon hosted by the University of Calgary. I was invited to participate by a friend who was putting together a team for the event, which I was happy to accept and proceeded to invite a friend of my own to round out our group of four.
The hackathon organizers provided a few topics of which each submission must address at least one. We selected the topic: Develop a tool to help people live a healthy lifestyle. Our application, Too Fit to Quit, aims to motivate its users to exercise by providing the functionality to customize their own workout routine, complete with an AI-based Text-to-Speech coach assistant. Like the last hackathon I participated in, we opted to use the Java framework Processing to aid in our time-limited UI implementation, and I feel our project was a success given the fast-pace nature of a hackathon. Here is the link our submission!
