Inspiration

Building habits is hard but can be transformational for your life. Building the habit of decision journaling has the potential to change your fate in fundamental ways. We make thousands of minuscule decisions every day without bothering to think about them too much. Most of these decisions are inconsequential, like which clothes to put on, but also large decisions like choosing a job offer determine the path our life takes. Without taking note of the reasoning, expectations and fears, we are bound to repeat struggles and mistakes over and over.

What it does

We want to help you make better decisions and encourage you to later reflect on your reasoning and expectations. For this purpose, we ask you to tell us some things about the decision you are facing. You just give it a title, and write your personal description of the problem you are trying to solve. In case you are dealing with a financial decision, try making estimates for the estimated risk/cost and chance/outcome. Further, try rating your confidence and tell us how often you would like us to remind you to review and reflect in the future.

How we built it

We use a boring™️ tech stack of Django, sqlite3 and bootstrap. We don't want unneeded stuff to get our ways and create a seamless and fast experience.

Challenges we ran into

Kickstarting a project in such a short time is always very difficult, including the set up of compatible dev environments.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

With a team of only two people we managed to build a protoype in a short amount of time.

What's next for DeJu

We will expand the app, add more features such as a user system, analytics and plugins.
