本次黑客松进展
During the hackathon, we took TruthLens from concept to a functional Chrome extension prototype. Here's a breakdown of what we accomplished:
Built the core Chrome extension from scratch.
Implemented a content scanning feature to detect potentially misleading or false information on web pages.
Added a UI pop-up interface that displays the results of the verification checks to the user in a clear and intuitive format.
Integrated with [optional: mention any APIs/tools] to enhance content verification and credibility scoring.
Developed an initial version of a veracity scoring system based on defined parameters like source credibility and keyword analysis.
Ensured smooth extension installation and usage, with basic styling and user experience improvements.
Collaborated effectively using GitHub, assigning tasks, and managing issues to streamline our workflow.
Conducted live testing on real news articles and made adjustments based on user feedback.
Learned a lot about Chrome extension architecture, asynchronous JavaScript handling, and the challenges of NLP for fact-checking.
