Inspiration
We were inspired by the discord bot that reminds us to take care of ourselves despite grinding hard to get our projects in!
What it does
Our project allows its users to take care of their physical and mental health while setting a work-break schedule that suits their own pace.
How we built it
We built it using React.js for the frontend and Django for the backend. We also prototyped it using Figma.
Challenges we ran into
It was difficult to learn how to use React and Django for us because we don't have a lot of experience with either. It was also difficult to figure out how to connect the frontend to the backend.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We're proud that we managed to get a working timer set up, as well as coming up with a neat Figma prototype! We're also proud that we managed to integrate Django into the React frontend we started with.
What we learned
We learned how to coordinate tasks well and each took on our own portion of the work and tried our best to figure out how to put it together at the end.
What's next for Self Care Extension
We would like to add more features such as customizable break activities, allow users to add their own work-break presets, etc!
