Mini Virtual Hackathon Project: PerfectDate Generator

This Week’s Mini Virtual Hackathon Project: PerfectDate Generator

We built something fun this week — PerfectDate Generator is a simple website that gives you custom date ideas based on your time, budget, vibe, and preferences.

Just tell it what kind of day you want, and it’ll come up with 3 ideas that fit.

View the code:

How it Works:

Pick your:

  • Time available (2 hours / 4 hours / All day)

  • Budget ($20 / $50 / $100+)

  • Vibe (Chill / Adventurous / Romantic / Nerdy / Outdoorsy)

  • Location type (Restaurant / Activity / Nature / At-home)

  • Activity level

  • Partner preferences (optional)

Then it generates 3 date ideas with:

  • Estimated cost

  • Time required

  • Why it’s a good fit

Why This Was Cool:

This idea could go in so many directions:

  • Swipe-to-match based on the date idea itself

  • Sell full date packages

  • Partner with local businesses

  • Auto-suggest locations between friends

  • Outdoor adventure planning with terrain analysis

What we built is simple — but it’s a great starting point.

It’s ~3 hours of rapid building with whoever shows up.

Rules are simple:

  • Everyone codes
