swe project course

had a course which was all about building a project through the entire semester with your group for a real client.

built a mobile app concept designed to deliver daily mindfulness exercises, guided meditations, mood tracking, and personalised mental health reminders.

main focus was on frontend design, we received color palettes, mockups and a crafted vision from the client, really nice client btw.
