Inspiration

What is the first website you use when looking for quick information on a subject? Is it WikiPedia? Google Images? Maybe YouTube? For us it is all three! When it comes to looking something up on Wikipedia, we found that we were always wanting just a little bit more in terms of related information on the subject. By combining Wikipedia, YouTube, and Getty Images API's, we were able to create an application where a user has access to just the right amount of information all in one place.

Application

Olahuli is a front-end web application that allows users to conduct a Wikipedia search and obtain wiki information in addition to related images and YouTube videos all in one place.

Built With
