CrisisWin - Helpline Directory

This is my submission for the GitHub Finish-Up-A-Thon Challenge*

What I Built

CrisisWin is an open-source platform that consolidates helplines from every country in the world into an easy-to-navigate resource. Whether you're new to the neighborhood or a traveller travelling solo or with your pet, in times of crisis, finding the right number quickly can save lives.
This site includes all sorts of helpline - fire, ambulance, police, mental health, domestic violence, animal rescue, tourists, new residents, etc.

Demo

I have recorded a demo showcasing the features of the new site. You can visit both the old site and new site. Here's the link to github repo if you would like to contribute.

This is a snap of the old site:

The Comeback Story

I initially deployed the old site and opened for Hacktoberfest contributions but I was not satisfied with the UI and search bar functionality was not unified.
So there was a major update in the new site including the UI, About and Team section, PWA support so it can be installed and used as an application and is accessible on any screen.

My Experience with GitHub Copilot

• I have used Copilot to generate more than 50% of the code, from the CSS file to adding the unified search functionality or fetching the github details of the contributors in the Teams sections.
• I created a new repository for the new site and it was hectic to migrate the data from the old repository that too in a new key-value format. So I had GitHub Copilot take care of it.
• Also, several data has been added in the new site from information available all across the trusted sources in internet and I used Copilot to convert the raw data to structured JSON.
• While I was deciding to change the name, I gave a few options and asked Copilot which is the best suited for my project and support its choice with reasons and it chose the one I already had in my mind and also gave some solid reason to support.
