Inspiration

We are all involved in an organization called "Active Minds" which helps to educate people about and destigmatize mental health.

What it does

Users take a short quiz to determine how their day went to track long-term trends in their mental health, which can be accessed through a calendar.

How we built it

Used Python and JSON for the backend with Tkinter for the GUI. Also used requests to show user a daily quote.

Challenges we ran into

At first, we thought we could just create a quiz with a calendar, but soon realized we would need a method to store users' previous inputs. Had to use store and get data on a JSON file

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Getting the calendar to change color and being able to add multiple data points to the JSON file

What we learned

How to use JSON, how to use Tkinter, developing a GUI, and using requests.

What's next for Mental Health Tracker
