Inspiration

In 2017, the President of India, Ram Nath Kovind asserted that India was “facing a possible health epidemic”. A study revealed that in the same year, 14% of India's population suffered from physical and mental health ailments. These shocking statistics served as an inspiration for us to make a platform that could address this issue.

What it does

HappyMe is a self-improvement website. Users can come and follow our tracks of physical and mental exercises. In each track, they are given physical and mental exercises as tasks to be performed each day for their overall fitness. HappyMe encourages users to complete these tasks each day. Users can also check their daily progress in the website. Along with this, users can also create their own tracks filled with the exercises they want to focus on.

How we built it

We used HTML, CSS and JavaScript to develop the frontend of the application. The backend was developed in Node JS with MongoDB as the database. We used Express.js and Mongoose for faster development.

Challenges we ran into

One of the challenges was the time constraint. Other problems included having a central database for testing which all team members could use without individually configurations. We solved this by using MongoDB Atlas free version.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We have successfully create the application, which does what we want to do.

What we learned

We learnt teamwork, utilizing GitHub and advantages of cloud services.

What's next for HappyMe - Health website for all

We plan to refine current features and also include chat systems, and ability to share user-created tracks.
