Inspiration

We like to study, but there isn't an app that you can open and start studying immediately. If you want a Pomodoro timer, you have to open the Clock app; if you want your to-do list, you have open up another app for that; if you want your quick sticky notes, you have to open up another app for that, ... So we wanted to create an app that can accommodate all of that and more.

What it does

It offers multiple intuitive drag-and-drop widgets that you can place anywhere on your virtual desktop with all of the functionality you would expect in the apps that you use.

How we built it

We used Tkinter as the main GUI framework and Python3 to program the functionality.

Challenges we ran into

It's a new framework for both of us, so a big challenge is learning all the different elements and functions of Tkinter.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of the drag-and-drop system and how we can package all our widgets into compact frames.

What we learned

How to use Tkinter and UI/UX design.

What's next for StudyDesk

More widgets and UI improvements based on user feedback.
