The Challenge

The challenge with building Penlitics was trying to pull in articles from different sources to show in the app tagged as whatever political party the source belongs to (Democratic, Republican, etc.). Once we pulled in the sources, we had to make sure that we were updating the news feed daily so that users could see the most relevant news at any given time.

Goal

To help young adults who have recently become eligible to vote to educate themselves and learn more about the political landscape so they can start to shape their views.
