Comment

For the Beginner Division

What it does

Allows user to input data they get from their FitBit or smartwatch such as steps. Creates a graphical representation of the data. Shows other information about the personal data.

How I built it

Used HTML, CSS, Javascript for the frontend. JDBC, JSP, Oracle Database for backend.

Challenges we ran into

I ran into a lot of problems. Some that were the most notable was making the front-end look more pleasing to the eye and database related things (like the values not getting updated or not being retrieved properly).

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Creating a functional prototype. Storing and Exchanging the data succesfully. Using a language (javascript) and a technology (jsp) that I only had a 2-3 weeks of experience with.

What we learned

How to use jsp to connect a database to a webpage. How to create a more engaging front-end.

What's next for FlexiTrack

Making it functional with other data (blood sugar, minutes of excercise, etc.) Adding more features (Contacting an Expert, Improvement plan organizer) Better UI
