Samayam | Devpost

Inspiration

As a student, I often have trouble prioritizing tasks and managing my time. I often see other students with the same problem too, and I noticed that they fall into one of two categories:

They have too much work to juggle
They are unable to prioritise their work.

What it does

Samayam is a 2-in-1 solution for both of these problems via a method known as timeboxing/timeblocking. It involves created set 'blocks' of time to do a task, like a calendar. However, Samayam goes a few steps further than this by allowing the student to answer questions when they sign up so the app can automatically enter in their school/work times, their sleep cycle, etc.

The server sends push notifications to the user reminding them when to switch tasks.

How we built it

Frontend - React + ShadCN UI + Vercel + Firebase Backend - Node.js + Express + Firebase + Render

Challenges we ran into

This app involves a lot of logic that was difficult to build at some parts, but turned out fine.
The app had lots of UI bugs that we fixed
The short time was extremely challenging!
