Chronos is a flexible time management tool designed to help students strike and maintain a healthy work-life balance while remaining adaptable to changing situations. By blending life-gamification and motivational aspects with schedule-making functionality, Chronos provides a unique approach to managing time effectively and achieving goals.
Chronos was developed as a part of the CSC207 course project by "The Hamburglars" team. The project was created with the intention of encouraging goal accomplishment and enabling simple adjustment of schedules. It offers a calendar system that allows users to set up, modify, and track events, along with the ability to design self-awarded prizes upon achieving specific goals.
- Flexible Calendar System: Set up events that can be modified later using a user-friendly interface.
- Goal Setting and Tracking: Users can create goals associated with events and track their progress.
- Life-Gamification: Design rewards for yourself that are only awarded if specific events are fulfilled, promoting a balanced lifestyle.
- Accessibility Features: Customize the application's background and font colors to suit your preferences, ensuring a more accessible user experience.
