  2. Front-end: React
  3. Back-end: Pandas, Flask, and scikit-learn.
  4. Database: PostgreSQL (user profiles), MongoDB (chat history), SQLite (mood analysis)
  5. NLP: SpaCy for text processing and sentiment analysis
  6. Deep Learning: TensorFlow/Keras for mood prediction.
  7. Security: OAuth 2.0, HTTPS, end-to-end encryption
  8. Data Analysis: Python (Matplotlib, Seaborn) for mood trend visualization.
  9. Cloud services:- Linuxone IBM

Challenges we ran into-

Providing accurate and empathetic responses to diverse mental health issues is complex, as is recognizing and addressing users in crisis. Overcoming stigma and engaging users over the long term are significant hurdles. Algorithmic bias must be monitored to ensure fair support.
