I created Picnic Spots with another team member from HackSheffield, Arnas Boruchovas. At first we were struggling to come up with an idea, so we took some time outside to have a break. Whilst searching for a place to eat our lunch, our idea strook — a website to find nice picnic spots!

Picnic Spots was created using:

  • Express for routing and middleware
  • EJS for templating
  • Sass for styling
  • Passport for authentication
  • Mapbox for the interactive map
