Each member of Team Awesome owns a key part of the application, from backend data models to front-end experiences.
The Project
What we built, why we built it, and the technologies powering it.
DayPlanner is a cross-platform mobile scheduling app designed to help users efficiently manage their daily tasks, events, and social plans. We set out to solve a problem we all experienced firsthand: coordinating busy schedules among friends is painful when everyone lives inside a different app and format.
By combining a smart calendar, friend collaboration tools, an AI chatbot assistant, and file-import capabilities into a single intuitive app, DayPlanner becomes more than just a calendar — it becomes a scheduling hub for everyday life.
DayPlanner is built with a React Native (Expo) frontend for cross-platform mobile support, backed by a Python/FastAPI REST API, a Firebase Firestore database, and an AI-powered chatbot engine for natural-language scheduling.
