Capstone Project - Maria Obregon Garcia

Calendar Buddy

Learning Goals

• Build a full-stack app
• Firebase
• Swift/SwiftUI
• Working with different APIs

Project Description

• People with ADHD and other types of neurodiversity often struggle with time blindness and object permanence. These qualities present three main challenges:
  • Being on time for events
  • Preparing for things that are in the future (past individual's time horizon)
  • Gauging how long task will take to complete
• This app aims to tackle the first challenge by automatically creating customizable event reminders

MVP Featureset

• Google and Apple calendar integration
  • Events can be imported by inputing calendar's address in iCal format (Google offers secret addresses)
• Customizable reminders for tasks
  • Users create reminder preferences (preferred frequency and distribution)
• Uncluttered display of upcoming events
  • Users can easily see a focused display of their next event or the current day's events
