Inspiration

When we were brainstorming ideas, we became inspired by our teammate's life as a current small business owner. We strived to improve people's lives, especially those who don't have the same resources as larger companies, but are still ambitious about their passions.

What it does

Howdy Habits is a website that offers relief for mental health and stress in business owner's lives by creating a platform that's easy to manage and maintain. This website adds benefits to their lives, such as: reducing distractions, allowing businesses to focus on their craft and mental health, and reducing the load of tasks needed to operate their personal and professional lives.

How we built it

Initially, we sought to cater our platform to assist others, which prompted us to turn to a business-oriented website. We built Howdy Habits using the following languages, APIs, and databases; CSS, JavaScript, HTML, Node.js, Express API, Axios API, Bootstrap, Bulma, and LoadDB.

Challenges we ran into

Initially, we were challenged when it came to the interactions between the interactions between the frontend, backend, and database and how they should function to create the website we envisioned on paper.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

One of our accomplishments that we're very proud of is figuring out how to create the interaction between the different parts of a website while also operating our database to store the user's thoughts to destress them. We are also proud of creating a website that can prevent future business owners from facing challenges due to disorganized workflows.

What we learned

We learned programming languages and collaboration, which were very dependent on each other. As each of us came from different programming backgrounds, learning to collaborate in a way where we can lift each other and the project up was definitely a highlight in building this website.

What's next for Howdy Habits

We plan to continue the development of Howdy Habits, by implementing features that look to improve the lives of future business owners, such as: AI that helps the user destress easier, increased automation in their work lives, and a better connection between the business owner and their profession.
