πΈβοΈ CottonCloud
_A playful wellness and mental health app that helps you unwind, reflect, and grow.
π Inspiration
We wanted to create a safe, fun space for people to express their emotions, de-stress, and take better care of their mental health. A lot of wellness tools feel clinical or boring so we made something warm, interactive, and genuinely enjoyable to use.
π‘ What it does
CottomCloud is a mental wellness app where users can:
- Log their daily moods in a cute, interactive diary
- View their emotional journey on a visual calendar
- Create and customize their own characters
- Engage with relaxing animations and calming interactions

- Animation & Interactivity: TypeScript and custom components
- Firebase: User Authentification
