Inspiration

I struggle a lot with concentration and one day had a talk with my manager an he explicitly told me that everybody has bad days (I have a lot of perfectionism) and I should just let him know and that it is better to do something and get started then to do nothing because who knows what might happen once you get started. So this apps helps you start.

What it does

It gives you a task based on your focus level and during these tasks it will increase/decrease. Based on this it gives you easier/harder tasks from your pool so you at least can try and do something without getting overwhelmed. It also does not show how many tasks you still have in your pool so you don't get discouraged by the pile of work.

How we built it

Using Cursor and the AI skills provided by Devpost I got guided through the process of a concept, then an PRD (which was new to me), afterwards the spec and ending with the code and a couple prompts to fix a little bug because no AI is perfect.

Challenges we ran into

No real challenges, the project went smooth!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

A working basic app with capabilities to help people with concentration problems and which gave me a vision of how you could expand it with things like a database, connector to project management tools like JIRA...

What we learned

How AI uses these tools and how it even selects the right tools. This is also what I asked in the 1-start chapter.

What's next for FocusPoint

Doing the expansions talked about in "Accomplishments that we're proud of" and putting it open-source for everyone to use!
