Inspiration

Eating junk food causes a release of dopamine in the brain. This reward encourages susceptible individuals to eat more unhealthy foods. Chronic sleep deprivation can lead to diabetes, heart failure, or stroke. Not exercising and drinking enough water can lead to dehydration and serious diseases. All this becomes addiction and deadly to life with time. Healthy Me provides a platform where each individual can keep a check on their health and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

What it does

Healthy Me suggests to the users, various ways by which we can keep ourselves healthy and check on our health status every day. It tells you how much sleep you require, shows the calories you have consumed in a day, suggests exercises to keep you updated with your hydration levels, and keeps a check on your everyday meals. All these daily practices can help each individual stay fit and healthy and shield them from diseases for a longer period of time.

How we built it

Healthy Me was designed using Canva. The designs then were implemented through Velo by Wix, Data was collected which was required for accomplishing various tasks like calorie calculation, etc, and was implemented by using Wix-data, database collection, and javascript.

Challenges we ran into

It was the first time for us to use Wix data and database collection. In the beginning, we were struggling with importing the data, keeping a check on the data types, extracting data from the database, displaying it on the webpage, etc. But in the end, we finished the project successfully. Time is always a challenge, we are not much experienced in dealing with such pressure-inducing situations. Online communication is still a little inefficient.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Fearlessly trying out new technologies and not giving up until we don't make something out of it is what we are proud of. We overcame the above-mentioned challenges, and that too with good time management. We worked together in a team, where everyone was efficient and worked hard for the project, so the end result was awe-inspiring. Despite all the problems and difficulties, successfully completing the project in the given period is one of the biggest accomplishments we could have accomplished in this hackathon and we are proud of that, so it was really a great experience.

What we learned

Time management is something that we will eventually learn, but through this event, we got some ideas on how to prioritize the work to manage time. We learned how to work under pressure. Teamwork was also an important lesson through this. We learned how to analyze the expertise of each other, and we learned many new technical concepts while working with each other. Along with that, we got to know a lot from each other’s experiences. Patience and calmness are the keys in such a pressure-inducing situation, believing in ourselves and backing each other are very important and that is what helped and motivated us to keep on working on the project and not lose hope against the fear of failure is still in the process of learning. Technically, now we have more command over Velo by Wix.

What's next for Healthy Me

We would like to take our project further by including new functionalities, such as:

Authentication to make it more personalized.
More ways to keep ourselves healthy.

Overall, this project can be taken to a higher platform with improved standards. Along with that, participating in this hackathon boosted the confidence of our team. Now, we feel strong enough to compete and go for more such challenges and face them fearlessly. And hopefully, our future road is embarked with much more achievements.
