🛠️ How We Built It
We built Smart Daily Planner using a simple front-end stack: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, powered by Kiro, the AI IDE.
🧩 #SpecDrivenDevelopment with Kiro
We started by using Kiro’s spec system to plan out our app components. The following specs were defined in the /.kiro/spec.json:
TaskInputForm: Handles user input for task title, time, and optional notes.TaskCard: Displays individual tasks with "mark complete" and "delete" options.TaskListRenderer: Dynamically displays the day’s tasks sorted by time.
Using specs allowed us to scaffold the entire structure quickly and clearly, without writing boilerplate code ourselves.
💬 #KiroConversations
We used Kiro’s natural language chat interface to generate much of the functional code. Some highlights:
- Generated a clean ES6 class structure for task management
- Helped implement localStorage by date key to isolate daily task lists
- Wrote the
renderTasks()function with built-in sorting logic - Created the complete/delete task logic based on our specs
Kiro guided us step-by-step, turning plain language into working code — fast.
⚙️ #AgentHooks
To make the app smarter, we added Kiro hooks:
dailyResetHook: Automatically clears the task list when the date changesautoSortHook: Re-sorts the list in real time whenever a task is added or marked complete
These simple automations removed friction and improved user experience without adding manual steps.

🚀 #Outcome
By combining Kiro’s spec-first approach, live code generation, and helpful automation hooks, we built a lightweight, clean, and fully functional daily planner — all in the browser, no backend required.
It’s fast. It’s responsive. It’s smart. And it was built in record time with Kiro by our side.
