Inspiration
TimeBox was inspired by the productivity technique known as Timeboxing. Timeboxing gives a person a visual representation of the time they have to do certain things throughout their day, creating a more productive day overall. It was made to deal with the issues of time management when taking online school.
What it does
It is a minimalistic application that allows the user to write out all the things they have to do, and put them on a timed schedule. This allows the user to fully visualize their necessary tasks and plan out a productive day.
How I built it
I used a text editor called Glitch.com. The editor has a simple node.js app template that I built my project upon.
Challenges I ran into
One major challenge was the html table. It was hard to figure out how to set it up where the cells could be edited by the user. Another one was using node. I'm newto javascript, so I had to learn how to use it properly for this web app.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I am proud of the site's responsiveness and simplistic UI. I often find myself putting too much into a project, so it was nice to create one that was as condensed as this one.
What I learned
I am not very experienced in javascript, so this project allowed for me to build up my skills in the language.
What's next for TimeBox?
The application, currently, is very minimalistic, so the next step would be to add more features that help the user become even more productive.
