Overview

A family-oriented activity recommendation app I built as my first major portfolio project after starting at SFBU. Designed around a real problem I had as a parent: it's hard to find age-appropriate weekend activities efficiently.

Architecture

Next.js frontend with a FastAPI backend handling the recommendation logic and a scraper that pulls activity listings from public event sources. Supabase handles auth and persistence.

The recommendation engine uses a simple content-based approach: activities are tagged with attributes (age range, indoor/outdoor, cost, duration), users specify their preferences, and we surface the highest-scoring matches.
