ReFL3KT - Frictionless Productivity Solution for Students

Project Description

ReFL3KT is a seamless productivity and goal-tracking platform designed for students. It integrates time tracking, goal setting (with hierarchy and group features), journaling, and analytics into a unified, intuitive workflow. AI-driven prioritization, gamified LUBE points, and minimal manual input ensure students can focus on growth, not admin tasks. The mobile-first approach ensures accessibility and engagement, while group goals and community features foster accountability and collaboration.

Explanation

• Mobile App (Flutter):
  Students interact with a user-friendly mobile interface to log time, set goals, journal, and view analytics.

• API Layer (Django REST API):
  The app communicates with the backend via RESTful API endpoints. This layer handles authentication, request validation, and routes requests to the appropriate modules.

• Core Modules:

  • User Management: Handles authentication, registration, and user profiles.
  • Time Tracking: Manages time entries, categories, and integrates with goals.
  • Goal Tracking: Supports hierarchical and group goals, progress, streaks, and LUBE points.
  • Journal: Stores and retrieves daily reflections and logs.
  • Analytics & AI Recommendations: Processes data to generate productivity insights, dynamic scheduling, and personalized recommendations.
  • Group Goals: Manages collaborative goal setting and progress tracking.

• Database (PostgreSQL):
  All modules interact with a centralized PostgreSQL database, which stores structured data such as users, time entries, categories, goals, journals, analytics, and group goal information.

This modular backend ensures seamless integration of time tracking, goal management, journaling, and analytics, enabling frictionless productivity and personalized recommendations for students.
