OverAchiever App

📱 Overview

OverAchiever is a personal productivity and habit-building mobile app built using .NET MAUI. Its primary goal is to help individuals define, track, and complete daily goals in a simple, intuitive, and visually engaging way. The app is designed for students, professionals, or anyone looking to take charge of their daily tasks and resonates with me a lot as someone who tends to slack off a lot! The aim is to intentionally keep people on track with things they have to do daily so that they can constantly strive for greatness by constantly improving!

✅ Key Features

Create a Goal

The app’s Create Goal feature allows you to:

Add a title and description for a goal.
Choose specific days of the week to work on a set goal. For example, creating a goal to “Go to the gym” on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
The day buttons highlight when selected, giving immediate visual feedback to ensure users clearly understand their weekly plan.

View Today’s Goals

When opening the Today’s Goals page, the app fetches only the goals that match the current day of the week. This reduces clutter and helps users focus on what needs to be done today instead of feeling overwhelmed by a giant list.

Each goal displays:

A title and description
A toggle to mark it as completed
An option to delete it if it’s no longer needed!

Mark Goals as Completed

Updates the local database using SQLite, ensuring that user progress is saved even if the app is closed.
Provides an instant confirmation alert to celebrate accomplishment of completing a goal.
Removes the completed goal from today’s active list, to see user progress clearly.

Goal Management Easily

Delete goals you no longer want to pursue.
Quickly see which goals are done and which ones need attention.

🗂️ How It Works

The app uses a local SQLite database for storing goals. This means:

Data stays on the device.
There’s no dependency on an internet connection to view or update goals.
CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update, Delete) are handled smoothly in the background with asynchronous methods to keep the user interface responsive.

The architecture uses the MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) pattern with CommunityToolkit.MVVM to make the codebase clean, maintainable, and scalable.

User Interface Design

The user interface is designed to be minimal yet vibrant:

The homepage presents two clear buttons with contrasting colors (e.g., gold and dark orange) for creating goals or viewing today’s goals.
The Create Goal page uses visually distinct buttons for each day of the week. When you select a day, its button color changes, giving you instant feedback on your choices.
Contains both flyout and tab shell navigation for seamless navigation across the app.
Overall layout is designed to be touch-friendly and intuitive so anyone can handle the app effectively.

Purpose of OverAchiever App

Daily Focus: Many productivity apps show all tasks at once. OverAchiever narrows your view to what’s relevant today, reducing stress and decision fatigue.
Habit Building: By repeating goals on specific days, the app naturally supports building good habits over time.
Offline-First: Everything works without needing an internet connection, thanks to the local SQLite database.
