🌟 Wittier is the official RiverHacks2025 project built by the Women in Tech (WIT) team at Austin Community College!
Our goal: create a smart, witty platform powered by Next.js and SerpAPI to deliver fast, insightful, and empowering information to users.
Wittier is a web application that showcases how powerful women in tech can build with modern web technologies.
Using Next.js for the frontend and SerpAPI for intelligent search results, Wittier will:
- Allow users to query and retrieve real-time search data.
- Display results in an engaging, accessible, and mobile-friendly interface.
- Celebrate women-led innovation by demonstrating top-notch engineering, design, and collaboration.
- Next.js — React Framework for server-side rendering and static site generation
- SerpAPI — Real-time Search API for Google, Bing, and more
- Vercel — Deployment and hosting
- TailwindCSS (optional) — Utility-first CSS framework for styling
