Biene

Inspiration

Mental health is a very important aspect of everyone's lives, but many people don't pay much attention to it. This inspired us to create a website and virtual pet, named Biene, which will help the user to take care of their mental health.

What it does

Biene allows people to take care of their mental health, by providing numerous features. This website consists of a homepage, journal, chatroom, contact us, and account. Users can sign in/sign up into their account and journal their thoughts/feelings on a daily basis. The journal comes with a built in calendar, where the user can view what they have written. They can also head over to the public chatroom, where they can anonymously talk to other users as well as receive help. Moreover, if the user wants to get in touch with therapists/counselors or need to reach the helpline, they can do so via the Contact Us page. The user has access to everything, with a click of a button.

How we built it

We built this website using HTML/CSS and the design was made in Figma.

Challenges we ran into

Many of our team members were not experienced in HTML/CSS, so they had to thoroughly learn about it before we could start the project. Additionally, we had a difference in time zone, which made it a bit difficult to collaborate with other developers in the team.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Despite the setbacks, we were able to get the project done on time. We were able to make a fully functional website that allows the user to interact with it. Moreover, the website consisted of a minimalistic design, which makes it easy to use.
