A small problem at home
As a new parent, I wanted to track my daughter's feeds, diaper changes, poop times, and playtime. I sketched screens, then used AI-assisted coding to build a web app.
Start with the day's shape
The circular view showed the last 24 hours. Day/night cues and emojis helped me read it quickly. Recent-activity summaries answered a simple question: how long has it been?
I loved creating the cute emojis and bringing them into the app through code. I'm especially proud of the circular interface. It makes the last 24 hours easy to read at a glance.
Sketch the logging flow
The logging flow was short: choose an activity, add its time and details, then save. The category editor let me customise icons and units.
More than one way to review the day
The timeline listed activities in order. Statistics offered a longer view, with weekly to all-time filters and measures for feeds and pumping.
A shared view of care
Sharing let other caregivers use the same view. Baby profiles showed who was managing care.
What I took from it
This was my first experience building a working, useful app for myself. I brought my design and craft skills together into a cohesive experience that felt personal. It was genuinely useful to my family, the app's main users. I learned a lot by building it.
