Decide on Scope #8

Closed drewlearns closed 1 year ago

drewlearns commented 1 year ago

Scope as I see it currently:

We want to narrow the scope before coding to determine what platforms and technologies to use.

IMO We should just go with Twitter to keep it simple. I like the idea of email reminders except that email is easy to miss. Would it be complex to have mobile notifications instead or as well as email? Needs to be able to turn on and off Does it need a schedule function so posts can be scheduled at a particular time? Does it need to integrate with Grammarly or a spell checker API? Would need to allow for the upload of screenshots or video?

How about having a motivational quote each day - on the website and emailed to the individual along with the reminder? When I tried completing 100daysofcode, I got to about day 60 but had long periods of time (months) when I didn't put anything down so having something motivational would help I think.

That's an awesome idea.

I have created a separate issue for the "motivational quote" API

I have a couple of items regarding the scope to discuss at the next meeting:

  1. the potential idea of the app's integration with Google Calendar?

To give some context - The user creates a daily repeating appointment or reminder - or the app creates one on Google Calendar for their 100 Days Of Code and the app picks up the scheduled appointment and then prompts the user along with motivational quotes via whatever method we will use to keep the user engaged. (lock screen on mobile, e-mail, text, whatever we decide).

The advantage of the above is that it would reduce complexity in the app because all the scheduling could be done in Google Calendar. This idea means if the person chooses to change the time On their calendar, it will auto-adjust the reminder from the app and when the person looks at their appointments and reminders on their calendar it will be right there in front of them in their agenda.

  1. The idea of the app being a wallpaper reminder app?

The advantage is that motivational quotes, reminders etc could appear as the user's wallpaper on their device. The disadvantage is that it limits the app to the device wallpaper, so there is a loss of some flexibility if the user wants to change their wallpaper.
