- What did you learn? I learned how to create a proper app from start to finish. Going from rough sketches to wireframes and inevitably to a fully functional app. I enhanced my figma skills and became well-versed in navigating this tool.
- What was easy? The easiest thing was creating my designs. I had a good idea of what I wanted my app to look like and Figma made it easy to make those ideas a reality.
- What was challenging? The prototype portion was initially very difficult for me to navigate. After a lot of trial and error, I was able to get the hang of it by the end.
- How could your submission be improved? My submission could be improved if I had more substance. I think if I could successfully integrate a menu system my submission would be great.
- How could I improve the assignment for the next class? I would say maybe offer more peer review. That was one piece that really helped me finish the project that I wish I had a little more exposure to earlier on.
- How might you apply your knowledge in future assignments or work scenarios? I know know how to create a to do app! A lot of the tools I learned from this project will definitely help me in future projects whether it be more apps or even websites.
- How did a specific reading or video inspire or help you? Refer to a specific reading or link for this; do not reference a class video or lecture. I took a lot of influence from google tasks and an app I use on my own called “anylist”. These two being established to do apps I took a lot of influence from their efficient design.
