Non-code issue - Considering getting a domain name

[mding5692]

Considering getting a domain name

• Considering getting a domain name and hosting this website/web app/spaghetti code online
• Need more collaborator devs to make this more professional
• Use job ads to help pay for domain fees seeing as mainly student developers would use this?
• Priority: Medium

If we can come up with a nice domain name (.org or .com...no .io, too expensive :P) I'll be happy to cover the cost of the domain. Hosting can be free through GitHub pages.

Haha, thanks Kevin, yeah true, nearly forgot that Github pages provides free hosting, I'm fine paying for the domain myself 👍 , also got some other friends interested in helping out that can probably share the cost, any ideas for the domain?

Also really appreciate the help and the support from you and Hackalist, this project wouldn't come around if not for you guys! :D

Another issue however is that I'm currently using the free version of Google Maps API to search up location names and I often hit the limit, either we'll have to find a free version or pay for API usage when this goes online on the internets

I'm also pretty boring so can only think of mapathon.io or mapathon.xyz for domain names

I actually think you need a new ui, really

Hey @NeoZhangTCL, that can be a new update, I was more focussing on getting this out last time I was on it so definitely lacking redesign and stuff! I know you're very good with design so maybe we can make that into a new issue?
