I built a side project i won’t get bored of.
About a week ago, as I am writing this blog, I embarked on a project to track my stats and those of my friends as we play basketball every other week. This is a side project I took on after getting inspiration from a YouTuber who dabbles in casual basketball with his friends.
I often start a project with excitement and enthusiasm, but I later lose interest in the project after hitting a hurdle, and I eventually give up on it altogether. The cycle repeats itself again and again. Some projects end up in the archive and are revisited when their topic is brought up.
However, this project is not one of those. I hope to improve on it and add more functionality to it. The tools I used to build this tracker are Python and Streamlit. Streamlit renders the user interface in a web browser, while the data is stored in a database using SQLite3.
I have uploaded the project to GitHub. It’s not yet deployed on any hosting platform.
Here is the link to the project: https://github.com/peterkure3/basketball-tracker.git
