Inspiration

It all started with us being unhappy with how most period trackers look. With how most period trackers look, we felt that they were too complex for our needs. We wanted to design our own that was both functional and with a design that makes us happy. As such, we wanted to put it in a less obvious place, along with letting the app be more than just a period tracker, which led us to Happy Home.

What it does

Happy Home is a mobile app that is complete with a login page and four different functions. Each function can be accessed with one of the four tiles on the main page, correlating to different home aspects and trackers: kitchen -> food, cabinet -> period, plant->water, front door->fitness.

How we built it

We used Firebase and Flutter to create our mobile home. Firestore was used to store user information.

Challenges we ran into

Both of us had minimal experience with design in Flutter, making layouts and design decisions a challenge for us. We also ran into syncing issues when retrieving our data from Firestore. We also wanted to have a tile for mental health/wellness, but we struggled to find a suitable API.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud that we successfully integrated Firebase and finished most of the functionality that we had planned.

What we learned

We learned how to make a functional application with multiple screens and compatibility with constantly changing real-time data from a cloud database.

What's next for Happy Home

We would want to add an option to toggle the calendar for the food page and add the option to see any previous month's data. Additionally, for the water tracker, we would want to add a progress bar instead of saying # of cups drank, that way it is clear how close the user is to the 8 cups goal. We also want to add a mental health/wellness tile.
