Inspiration

In a world with a plethora of productivity tools, we recognized a critical need for a unified solution that could cater to all our requirements in a single place. This need was particularly pressing for creative professionals whose time and output are intrinsically linked to their efficiency and productivity.

What it does

By combining many tools into a single platform, this device can help creatives work more efficiently. This features a to-do list and a minimal AI-based text editor. When a person joins the website, this web application gathers their details, which aids in understanding the user. Also, blogs are there to add value. Currently, a core feature we planned, automatic task prioritization is not implemented. Will be adding it soon.

How we built it

We used Bootstrap for most of the front-end designs, The backend database is designed with NocoDB, a low-code Database platform, We used Firebase for storing the to-do list. And a platform called Novel to act as our AI-based text editor(We hosted it, Yeey).

Challenges we ran into

  • Don't have enough Open AI API credits to run queries to make automatic text writing in Novel
  • Novel throwing in random errors while trying to host it.
  • Designing the UI for the landing website.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Built a whole webpage with Bootstrap
  • Hosted novel on our own.
  • All the things currently working are available to use publically.

What we learned

  • Learned to host novel on our own, surviving several bugs.
  • Learned to integrate different things into a full-fledged app
  • Learned about connecting NocoDB via webhooks to enable further customer transactions

What's next for 9_Build A Byte_Mono box

  • Need to add authentication via Google Auth.
  • Improve the onboarding workflow
  • Adding automatic task scheduling as per the schedule of the corresponding person.
  • Adding in a knowledge wiki with Docassauraus as the base template
