    Gamified Full Stack Mobile App

    Developed a full stack mobile app using gamification to track and motivate user growth.

    •Using React-Native & Expo, the app is currently in production with both iOS and Android users.
    •Everything is stored in the cloud, from user authentication to creating tasks, attaching photos, leaving comments and likes.
    •Using supabase for user authentication as well as database and object storage.
    •Implemented gamification features like streaks, levels and XP.
    •Added error logging via Sentry to catch production level errors and be able to debug specific to the user’s error and device information.
    •Setup notifications so user is notified on key events like when a friend likes their post or when a friend has added a task and for motivating users to keep up their streak.
    •Using Expo and EAS to provide updates over the air without needing the user to reinstall an app every time a minor app change is needed.
