We wanted to make the people around us less sad and annoyed, we wanted to create a program that could be used by our competitors to make them keep going and that we will be able to use our selves to make the challenge feel a little less annoying

The code lets the user pick either a compliment, advice or a motivational quote to be given to them, the code randomly chooses one massage from a long list and sends it to a text box to be readen by the user.

We used java to create the code as it was the only language we all knew, we used IDEs like NetBeans and Eclipse to work on different parts at the same time. One of us worked on the visuals, one worked on the randomizer and the third member searched for the lists.

We ran into a couple of challenges, from having some variables not take in values to visual issues, luckily we were able to work together on solutions.

We were able to complete our original plan which was becoming harder than we thought it would be as time went on. We also learned some information we didn't know and we more than anything else we able to have fun.

We learned about different TextField methods, which was completely new to most of our members, we learned that most issues were solvable by understanding that we were making dumb mistakes, and more than anything else we learned how useful teamwork was.

Hopefully, in the future, we will be able to add the option of adding the user's name and having it be part of their selected message, better visuals and maybe the chance of making the generator into an app so it can be used by anyone, anywhere, at any time.
