Inspiration

Our team aimed to build a tool that improves the educational productivity of students, regardless of their discipline and we settled on the realm of time management and task tracking. Gamification is a popular technique to motivate and build habits, such as learning through Duolingo or forming streaks on social media apps.

We want to bring gamification to time management and task tracking to motivate students to focus on how they are utilising their time.

What it does

Our app combines a to-do list of tasks (e.g. assignments, tests or anything else) and tracking of progress of these tasks with a timer. This measures how productive students are using their time.

The more time you spend studying/locked in the more EXP you get to level up with! You can compare your EXP earned from studying with friends on a global, university, and friends leaderboard to help motivate you to rank higher than your friends and study harder than them!

Additionally, you can track your studying journey through the profile tab, where you can see a breakdown of the amount of days you've spent studying in a row and graphs showing your performance for the month (EXP earned per day and hours spent locked in per day).

How we built it

Our idea is built as a web application using Next.js connected to a Postgres database that stores user and task information.
