LimitLess

Inspiration

1. All of us are in a Calculus class or somehow in the environment of it - AP Physics C - so we all understand the utter pain of first trying to understand Calculus, leading us to create this code for an app that is everything you need to master calculus.
   ## What it does
2. Our Calculus app - Limitless - has a variety of functions to help the average Calculus student excel in learning this beautiful math. Firstly the most important thing to do to excel in anything, especially something as difficult as understanding Calculus, is practice - our app makes it so that you get a daily reminder from text or email to do at least 1 practice problem a day which over time drastically improves your skill. Another thing that we have is that our practice problems are adaptive, meaning if you get them right they will get harder over time - which overall helps you become better. Another functionality our app has is that it has bite-sized info on how to solve derivatives and integrals using different techniques - power rule for derivatives or U-sub for integrals etc. ## How we built it
3. We first used a code compiler/editor known as VS code which Siva (one of our teammates) used to share with everyone so we could all code in it together. We used the coding language React Native which is a framework for JS as our primary language. We stored a sample of easy, medium, and hard questions in a JSON file to use in our app. We used Firebase to store user data from when they signed up. ## Challenges we ran into
4. We ran into plenty of challenges while making this app, just to name a few we had trouble setting up react native because the one we are used to and were taught in school is different as it was more simplified and the online documentation also had small differences making it more difficult to work on. Trying to implant a JS variable into react native or a JSON file was a very difficult challenge to cross as we spent a lot of time on it. ## Accomplishments that we're proud of
5. We are very proud of our overall app as it is something that we would use ourselves to aid us in our Calculus journey, and we are also very proud of what we were able to accomplish with some teamwork and brain power. ## What we learned
6. We learned how to improve on problem-solving and analytical thinking, as mentioned before we had a variety of different problems and we were able to finally solve them by listening to each other and putting some more brainpower into it. ## What's next for LimitLess
7. Maybe implementing general AI for people to ask specific questions and another sort of "game mode" where it is multiplayer and 2 people race off and see whoever can solve the most calculus (derivative and integral questions) in the least amount of time.
