This app brings the spirit of House of Vange (a performance/brand/biz/troll/art project/experiment) right to the hands of the user. Features include authenticated users, virtual gallery of completed HOV pieces, user stats (how much $ they've invested and how many pieces they have purchased), performative ecommerce, a guestbook to sign, an almost endless scroll, and a live updating price. Built with Google Firebase Firestore, SwiftUI, and Python.
The HOV app is in hibernation as it's not quite ready for primetime, but it does function!

This culminating project for Ada C16 was a blast to create. A challenging blast, but a blast no less.
I learned
- how to navigate Xcode
- write code in SwiftUI
- manage data on Firebase Firestore
- authenticate users with Firebase Auth
- import a csv file to firestore with a custom script
- transmute an art project to a new medium
- report progress to my group
- have compassion for myself after my app froze during the demo
Many many thanks to the Spruce gang <3 <3 <3
