Independent Project - Do Good Project

Date: 26 December 2023 - 2 January 2024 After Submitting My Proposal : After getting my Do Good Project Proposal ready, I decided to consult with my lecturer to ask for some feedbacks on my Gannt Chart and Learning Plan as he had asked me to rethink what do I want to learn in this project. I explained to him and also introduce ProtoPie, an advanced prototyping tool that offers a lot of features to take prototype projects more further. I explained that by using ProtoPie, I would have to start from scratch to learn on how to use the software as it is more advance. This will take a lot of time, because ProtoPie has a lot of features and tools that Figma doesn't have. I had also mentioned to my lecturer that I would be also be using Figma to design the wireframes and pages. This is because Figma and ProtoPie works really well together, and ProtoPie are focusing more towards prototyping instead of designing. I was considering to do the wireframe prototype in Figma and only start using P...

Date: 19 December 2023 Learning Plan : This week I refined my learning plan based on the feedback that I received from last week. I decided to focus on improving my prototyping skills by using an advance prototype tool, which is ProtoPie. ProtoPie is a prototype tool that is widely used by experts in the UI/UX design industry. It offers a lot of features that other softwares don't have. My current prototype skills is slightly above average because of previous semester subjects, and I find myself to be interested in leveling up my skills in this area. I finally be able to finalize my Phase 1 and Phase 2 with the new changes that I have made. I researched on how to make my learning process easier and smoother by exploring resources that is available online. There are a lot of platforms that is useful for me to look forward into when I am learning the new software. I also prepared myself for this learning plan by reaching out to the ProtoPie support team to apply for the student plan....

Date: 5 - 12 December 2023 * Note: No class/consultation on Week 5, so I combine my progress both Week 5 & 6. Competitors Analysis : I went through App Store and Google Play to find any grief related app that has similar features with CAPSOUL, but to no available. Because of this, I try to widen my search by finding any grief related app and I managed to find three mobile apps. I will analyse the purpose of the app, and their key features. I will also try to list down the cons of each app for my reference later. For Grief Refuge and Empathy app, I could not physically try the app on my phone because of the app not available in the region. Hence, I could only analyse the apps by going through reviews and videos that I could find in YouTube. I will also go through their websites in order to understand the purpose of the app and their features. For GoodGrief, I had tested the app physically and made sure to take notes of the features of the app. Because of insufficient grief related a...
