Inspiration

My son is in Kindergarten and just learning his words, this was inspired by his flash cards that he brings home from school.

What it does

Displays words in two different modes: Color Section mode, where the user has to repeat 10 words 30 times until moving to the next color section. All Words mode, the user starts at the beginning and works through all 90 words.

How I built it

I first built it using the old way to display to the screen. This also had only one mode and it worked but wanted to expand it. Than I implemented APL which is way superior to the old way. I have multiple intents to handle different requests such as change mode and the two modes.

Challenges I ran into

I am still a beginner developer so my biggest trouble was having code in the right spot. I have a few if statements that weren't doing what I was trying to do until i moved some code around it finally came through and works now how I pictured it.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I am proud of creating two modes and this skill in general. I didn't create for me but for other children like my son to grow and learn.

What I learned

More about Node.js, code placement and APL.

What's next for Rainbow Words

I would like to change so it handles different screens differently but for the most part, the screens handle everything just fine.
