Project Overview
PianoBud is a mobile application created for the Interaction Design course (COGSĀ 120). It helps users learn basic fundamentals of the piano. It is for users who need motivation in order to learn, as well as for users who don't have the time to sit through the basics. This application features lessons and games that the user can access anytime.
My Contributions
My main contributions included creating the visual design of the app. I helped create the prototype design on Figma, as well as making icons, color scheme, and logo. In addition, I assisted with some parts of the code, such as creating the JSON files for games, implementing the log out button, and setting up the achievements page.
