WorkItOut Project For MLH Hackathon
The WorkItOut project was inspired by the desire to make fitness more accessible to everyone. It aims to help people overcome common obstacles to exercise, such as a lack of knowledge or access to equipment, by providing a comprehensive fitness app.
WorkItOut was built using the following technologies:
- Frontend: React Native
- Backend: Node.js
- API Integration: YouTube's API
- Machine Learning: Personalized exercise recommendations
To get started with WorkItOut, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Nishitbaria/Workitout.git - Navigate to the project folder:
cd Workitout - Install dependencies:
npm install - Start the React Native app:
npm start - Start the Node.js backend:
npm run dev
Now, you can access the WorkItOut fitness app on your device and begin your fitness journey!
One of the biggest challenges we faced during the development of WorkItOut was sourcing high-quality video content. We wanted to ensure that the videos featured in the app were both informative and engaging, which required extensive research and curation. Additionally, developing accurate and reliable machine learning algorithms to provide users with relevant exercise suggestions posed a significant challenge.
We are proud of the following accomplishments in the WorkItOut project:
- A comprehensive exercise database.
- Curated video content.
- A personalized recommendations feature, setting us apart from other fitness apps.
Working on WorkItOut provided us with valuable insights into the fitness industry and the challenges associated with creating a comprehensive fitness app. We also gained experience with React Native, Node.js, and machine learning, which will be valuable for future projects.
