Inspiration
I am currently studying for the FE exam as a 5th year Civil Engineer and there was no tools available for me to aid me in my studies and keep me consistent for 10-15 minutes per day over a few months.
What it does
My app utilizes a duoling-style approach to help engineers study for the FE exam for 10-15 minutes per day. Taking them over all the required units for the exam over a selected amount of time that is determined upon registration and is easily changeable.
How we built it
As a civil engineer, I did not have much prior experience in coding. I learned how to use react native and expo to develop and test this app. I was able to get 2 screen working and the process of integrating a custom-button to my app.
Challenges we ran into
I did not like the standard button that came with react native so I created a separate custom-button to go along with my app. This was my first challenge and truly taught me how that is even done and how to import a file that I created and use it in my app. The second challenge was making two screens and the process of tracking the screen that the user is on.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I am proud to have even something to look at after the weekend that is somewhat working as intended thus far.
What we learned
I learned syntax for react-native, JS, how to use expo, how to create a custom button, and how to make multiple screens.
What's next for Exam Study App
Whats next is to add a user profile, fix the UI, implement actual study questions and provide solutions.
