I was inspired by some of my past experience, many people that I know have struggled with mental health to the point where it has become unhealthy and dangerous. I want my website to help prevent that one step at a time and my app to help distract people from their surroundings.
What it does?
Care 4 You is a mental health one stop shop. On Care 4 You you can find alternatives to your unhealthy habits to dealing with different emotions, distractions to help keep your mind elsewhere along with inspirational quotes and daily activities. It also has a small game on the website to help out if you are bored and in need of a game distraction.
How I Built It:
I built this website using google sites but also incorporated/ embedded a little bit of html code to make the game on the homepage. Along with that I used figma to create a app for the website which is centered more towards lofi beats and relaxing and calm music to study, sleep and chill too
Challenges I ran Into:
The biggest challenge I ran into was doing this entire hackathon for the first time and alone. I tried asking a lot of people around me and they said no and I thought I had found a partner through discord but they flaked on me last minute. Figured it out with a lot of YouTube tutorials and some help from one of the mentors, Gabby who helped me work out Figma.
Accomplishments that you are proud of:
Honestly I'm proud I stayed up this late to actually finish this without getting a yawn out of myself. I am also proud that I figured out a way to incorporate a little bit of code into the website in order to make something that is somewhat functional and playable.
What I learned:
I learned how to actually use Github. I never knew how to navigate Github until hackathon and even then I'm still a little confused but I understand a lot more than I did a year ago. Also discovered Figma and the codespace feature on Github.
Whats next for Care 4 You:
I would hope that the next stage of Care 4 You would be to incorporate the idea of the website and the idea of a app into one big product. Probably make it a app with the main focus being music and incorporate features of the website by adding a menu button to allow users to see the daily quote and activity along with other activities. Then from there it would be ensuring the app stays updated and coming up with new ways to combine music and mental health awareness.
