Inspiration

We, being but young students, often find ourselves tasked with the challenge of planning out our approach to doing work. With an app like this, we thought it would be a convenience to be able to add your tasks and have an app suggest an order for you to work in based off information about the task.

What it does

When you add an event, you are asked to provide the event name, due date/time, priority (high, medium, low), and also the estimated time it will take. And based off of that information, the app sorts the tasks and displays a suggested order to work in.

How we built it

Repl.it, using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Challenges we ran into

We ran into some conceptual problems where we didn't understand how to logically proceed with our program, whether that be design-wise or algorithmically. One such being, how to sort the tasks.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud that with the limited time frame we were able to build a functional product, even if at the beginning we weren't sure if we'd be able to.

What we learned

We learned that we need to budget our time and skills better, as we weren't able to efficiently get to everything we wanted to build. Also, another thing to keep in mind would be to plan out specific parts of how we wanted to build the project before actually doing so.

What's next for Task Scheduler

A design overhaul, making it more appealing and user-friendly. Also, an improved algorithm that utilizes machine-learning to better understand your work habits, and compensate for those in the generated schedule.
