zZz - Sleep Tracker

Inspiration

As students, we recognize the challenges of obtaining sufficient quality sleep amidst our demanding schedules and deadlines. This struggle is not unique to us; it extends to anyone facing similar constraints. With the aspiration to enhance well-being and contribute to a more balanced day, we are excited to introduce our project: zZz - Sleep Tracker.

What it does

We have 3 main functionalities:

Clock: Here users can set an alarm to their preferences to keep track of their sleeping schedules.
Tracker: Utilizing the data provided in the preceding tab, users can delve into their individualized sleep analytics showcased through visually engaging graphs. This empowers them to reflect on and improve their sleep patterns, striving for an optimized and enhanced sleep quality.
"Tips for a Restful Night": Lastly, as a concluding note, users have the opportunity to discover invaluable foundational advice aimed at enhancing the overall quality of their sleep.

How we built it

By combining Javascript, HTML, and CSS, we created a user-friendly website to help navigate these functions. Canva was also utilized for additional design enhancements, ensuring both functionality and visual appeal.

Challenges we ran into

Filtering out and deciding on the most practical functionalities posed a challenge during the ideation phase. Primarily, our team faced the difficulty of prioritizing ideas based on familiarity with the powerful trio of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Regrettably, due to our team's limited expertise, we had to eliminate certain ideas, retaining only those we could confidently implement within our skill set.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The majority of our team members are relatively new to front-end design and website functionality creation. Despite this, we made a concerted effort to rapidly acquire the essential skills overnight while trying our best to both finalize ideas and divide human resources to oversee different responsibilities. This enabled us to bring our envisioned website design to life, implement the necessary code, and successfully complete the platform.

What we learned

Throughout this experience, each team member took delight in acquiring the ability to adapt and improvise, even in the face of limited resources. This allowed us to emphasize, leverage, and enhance the unique expertise and experiences that each member brought to the project.

What's next for zZz - Sleep Tracker

To elevate our project in the foreseeable future, we aspire to expand our scope by incorporating larger datasets that consider users' personalized information, including factors like BMI, stress levels, and occupation. This expansion will allow us to create personalized profiles, summarizing and tracking individual sleeping patterns and habits. With this comprehensive data, we aim to generate more in-depth advice tailored to the specific needs of each user and potentially publish an application for more convenience.
