This web app was made using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I learned how to make websites during my junior year in high school. Ever since then, I have been working on a lot of web based projects non stop. Because I had prior experience in creating logos and user interfaces, implementing these designs in my web projects enabled me to see my designs being used in real life and led to my motivation. What makes programming fun is that you can create things you want or solve problems or issues you think can be solved with software.

I faced several challenges that have helped me grow my web development and design skills. Basic app features such as writing and getting information from the database took some time for me to wrap my head around. I also needed to create designs that speak for themselves, meaning they didn’t require instructions, since my main user base consisted of young students who may not all be used to using computers. Overall, I think creating this app has helped me think from a user first stand point.

In the future, I am planning to have SMA be integrated into the school website so that parents within our school and those outside of it can see what activities students at our school are working on. To keep the application active even after I graduate from this school, I am also planning to leave behind a group of people as a management team, and at the same time, hopefully have them find a new interest in technology and programming.
