Grow

A demo Android application built using Flutter and Firebase encourages users to drink water by allowing them to log in the number of cups that they drink. The number of cups grows virtual plants.

Comment

Inspiration: We wanted to create a means for people to do something good for the world and at the same time benefit their health.

What it does: It allows users to log in the numbers of cups of water they drink and accordingly water virtual plants.

How we built it: We drew the designs/screens, built the front-end using Flutter and Dart, and built the back-end using Firebase.

Challenges we ran into: Learning Firebase in a short amount of time, getting people on the same page in terms of code, Connecting the front-end and back-end.

Accomplishments that we're proud of: Finishing the final product.

What we learned: Learnt to work together with other programmers, learnt how to connect drawings with front-end design, learnt more about back-end, and learnt to connect front-end with back-end

What's next for Grow: We plan to stay in touch to expand the app even more in some ways:

  • Keeping plants at certain levels give you different number of points
  • compete with friends feature
  • plant decay for not consistently logging water -different kinds of plants with different levels of points -use real-life money to save plants that died in the process of growing
  • virtual plant-sitter for when going on vacation/ pay people to work with you

And also polish the product's design and source code
