Time Cost

Inspiration

Like everyone else I feel tempted to buy stupid expensive things and I don’t take into consideration how long it’ll take me to actually afford it, I just see that I have the money in my account and I splurge out haha.

What it does

Takes the users salary per hour and expenses and estimates how much hours it’ll take a user to work to afford something.

How we built it

With SwiftUI and swift using Xcode

Challenges we ran into

Taking all the different expenses and calculations into consideration and also formatting the number input.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Getting such a clean and easy to use interface.

What we learned

A lot of math 😅, good thing I’m an engineer and take boat loads of math. Also really enjoyed using UserDefaults which is a way to store things in your app even after the user closes it out. Learnt a lot of string formatting as well for the numbers.

What's next for Time Cost

AppStore submission and hopefully monetary advising tips for what you can do with the money instead of spending it. Also different currencies would be nice.
