Making Progress!

Hi everyone! Since the last time I posted , I have made significant progress. In fact, i am 2/3 done with the storyboard, and then I will be on to the overall design ( the pretty background and cute fonts). In the past 2 weeks, I have been working on the different sections for my  app ( the diet journal, the list of doctors, the profile, and the prescriptions). So far , there haven't been many road bumps. I do keep learning more and more about the website, like an important feature that allows me to link pages to each other. For example, if you clicked on "Diet Journal" on the profile page, it'll link you directly to that page. It was pretty simple to learn how to do it, after playing around with some buttons. One major thing that I noticed, was that I have overcome my fear of algorithms. There were so many steps involved for each section. For example, the log in page was more than just a long in page. I had to create pages to a "forgot your password" and create an account" page! It's a little hard to explain, but it was my biggest fear.  The great thing about Wix is that everything is super straightforward. Also, it's really easy to go back and fix mistakes. One challenge Im facing right now , is scaling the website version to fit the mobile app. As I may have mentioned in a previous post, Wix converts your Website to a mobile version. The only downfall is that things get scaled differently on the mobile version. I decided to present the website version to the class, but my dream for this app is to get it scaled properly on the mobile version by summer! By the next blog post, I hope to have 3/3 of my storyboard done as well as the design. This is where YOU come in! If any of you have any color scheme or design suggestions for this medical and health- related app, let me know in the comment section!
Till next time!
I uploaded a picture of the Profile outline down below! If you have any suggestions, feel free to suggest !

  1. Nadia, your app planning seems to be going really well! I am excited to see your final plan and I hope that you continue to pursue it even after the project is over with. I think the profile outline looks great, and in terms of suggestions, I think a relatively mild scheme would be suitable, as wild, crazy colors could be misconstrued as unprofessional. Best of luck!

  2. Wow, you've made a lot of progress! Hmm personally I would stick with cool colors like blues, greens, and purples to make the vibe/effect more calming and relaxing. Good luck!
