Inspiration
The #SeeItBlue campaign link got us thinking about how our mental health is suffering during corona. We are locked up at home, some of us in small flats with our family constantly swarming around us. Out of experience, we've noticed that the news seems to be filled with negative coronavirus news and this can have a very negative effect on our mental wellbeing.
What it does
The app gives you positive news articles that are recent. The articles are about what is happening in Singapore currently or the world in general. It gives you a more positive start to your day. We could always use a little more positivity in our lives :)
How I built it
We used swift to make the app and firebase to store the news articles. We also used figma to prototype and imovie to make the video.
Challenges I ran into
Coming up with an idea was a challenge for our team as every idea we had seemed to already exist.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I'm proud that we managed to pull everything together in the last minute.
What I learned
I've learnt how to use flutter and how to prototype with figma. I've also learnt how to integrate firebase.
What's next for 405 found happin
We will improve our app and upload it to the app store. We also want to automate the finding of positive news as currently it is manually added to firebase by one of us.
