Helperex

Helperex is a health screener where you can receive Physical and Mental Health support.

Inspiration

I wanted to build something that helps people. Many people right now are very afraid of the ongoing Covid pandemic and might want to either get checked on that, and/or receive Mental support. My app does just that!

What it does

Helperex provides a FREE Coronavirus Self-Checker from CDC and a Counseling ChatBot from HelloTars through a unique UI interface.

How we built it

I designed the UI first, to make sure the user can easily have access through the whole website. Then, it was a lot of HTML and CSS to follow the proper UI design. A lot of embedding was involved as the main goal was to include the CDC and HelloTars services.

Challenges we ran into

Embeddings!! It was very hard to embed the elements into the webpage as they were all from different sources and places.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I was able to learn a lot from this project. But most importantly, I wish this can help many people who are suffering during this pandemic.

What we learned

A few things I learned:

1. UI designs
2. Embeddings
3. Bootstrap

But the experience of making all of it work is the best in all this!

What's next for Helperex

Currently, I am thinking of adding more services like hotlines, or more technical services, like an AI physical screening.
