Development Process
Firstly as a team we searched through many research papers to figure out how to model how blood alcohol levels vary with time. My team mates were set with the task of implementing the model (though I did help with implemting this into the website).
I was set with the gruelling task of making the website, since I was the only one with experience of making web apps. I decided to use the python library, Dash. One issue I faced was timing, and since I was the only one who knew how to make a website, I had very little to make the aesthetics of the website look nice. I was focused on the functionality.
In the end the website worked pretty well however if we had more time/ more team members we would have been able to build a very nice website.
