LateReminder

Inspiration

Looking at useless apps, and I thought this was equally useless.

What it does

It takes an input of what it needs to remind you about, and the number of seconds before it needs to remind you of it. Then it is supposed to add a random number (pretty large number) and count down before reminding you about something.

How I built it

I spent half the day researching ways of implementing this, including xcode and android studio. But I ended up using react-native. Made a basic app, and it accepts inputs for a reminder and a time (seconds). But I have one-upped myself, and instead of reminding you an uncertain amount of time in the future after it should remind you, it doesn't even remind you at all! (I did not have enough time to figure out a way to implement the timer and everything else needed for this to work properly).

Challenges I ran into

Had no idea how to use react-native, or how to build apps.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Made an actually useless app. :D

What I learned

How to begin using react-native. This is a pretty neat and useful thing to know, but takes more than a few hours to get used to.

What's next for LateReminder

Probably not use it because it would be counter-productive.
