Inspiration
The recognition of the prevalence of Imposter Syndrome in individuals, particularly high-achievers or those in competitive environments. Imposter Syndrome can lead to feelings of anxiety, self-doubt, and a fear of failure, all of which can negatively impact an individual's personal and professional life, and impact job security.
Studies show that up to 70% of people will experience imposter syndrome at some point in their lives. When job security is threatened, imposter syndrome can be triggered, leading to a cycle of self-doubt and anxiety.
What it does
Our app offers a self-assessment tool, the Glance Imposter Phenomenon Syndrome Self-Assessment Tool, which helps users identify the symptoms and triggers of Imposter Syndrome. By taking the assessment, users can gain a better understanding of their own thought patterns and behaviours related to Imposter Syndrome, and can then take steps to address it.
How we built it
The frontend technologies, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery, were utilized to create the user interface and interactivity of the app. Firebase served as the backend infrastructure for storing and managing user data and authentication, as well as providing real-time updates and hosting. JSON was used to exchange data between the frontend and backend, facilitating seamless communication between the two.
