How I Used Amazon Q Developer ๐ค
Plan, Prompt, Polish ๐
1๏ธโฃ Blueprinting: I fed Q Developer the GratefulMind tech stack, user flows, feature listโand let it draft an iterative plan. ๐๏ธ
2๏ธโฃ Course-Correction: When its code snippets popped up too early or went off-track, I jumped in, refined prompts, and steered it back. ๐
3๏ธโฃ Code-Generation: Once the plan was rock-solid, I asked Q Developer to scaffold componentsโstorage utils, prompt engine, Chart.js integrationsโand then polished the output. โจ๐จ
The Rollercoaster of AI Collaboration ๐ข
- ๐ง Brainpower on Demand: Q Developer turns fuzzy ideas into concrete codeโmost of the time.
- โ๏ธ Human-in-the-Loop: My feedback loop kept features aligned with real-world needs(as per my perception and from i gathered from some research).
- ๐ Moments of Magic (and Mayhem): One minute youโre marveling at auto-generated chart handlers; the next youโre debugging its half-baked UI. ๐๐ฅฒ๐ฅน๐ญ๐ง
At its best, Amazon Q Developer is that ultra-bright apprentice whoโs bursting with ideasโ just needing your guidance to reach perfection. ๐ค๐
Dive in, fire up the gratitude prompts, and let me know which โahaโ moments GratefulMind surfaces for you! ๐๐๐
๐ A Heartfelt Thank-You
GratefulMind isnโt just lines of codeโitโs a celebration of every small win, a companion for your quietest reflections, and a spark for your next breakthrough. Thank you for sharing this journey with me. ๐
โจ A Little About Me
Iโm Divya, a lifelong learner who finds magic in the everyday: that first sip of black coffee โ, the joy of solving a tricky bug ๐, and the comfort of looking back on how far youโve come. I built GratefulMind so you can capture those moments, tooโbecause every feeling, goal, and spark of gratitude deserves its place in your story.
Still here? Youโre awesome. Go aheadโstart your first entry, and let GratefulMind surprise you with what it uncovers about you. ๐ซโจ๐งโโ๏ธ
And yup, thank you for being here until the end ๐.

Amazing work as always!
I'm constantly astonished by your design sense and unique ideas. A huge plus is how you actually turn those ideas into real, working projects that's rare and inspiring.
Keep building these cool, creative things and please keep sharing more posts about them. Love seeing what you come up with next!
Thank you so much buddy ๐ for such a sincere comment.
But for all these 4 projects, I made them using Amazon Q Developer. All the code for the project was generated by Amazon Q itself. I did provide it with detailed prompts stating my goals, and iterated as needed, but the coding part was done by Amazon Q for this challenge.
Really love how you brought both reflection and habit tracking into one app. Did journaling with GratefulMind change anything for you personally?
It got me into journaling and deep introspections - short but thoughtful, throughout the day. I would say that yup, it did help me overall. Did you try it as well?
I'll try it!
Thanks!
Looks really amazingโจ๏ธ Cheers for doing these challenges! And I enjoy the way you write about your projects!
Thank you Harry.
I'm liking your creativity in each of these comments.
I'll be using this one from now on!
Thank you ๐๐
Did it help you so far?
It did ๐
Really liked how u added the 4 different domains...health, work, social and personal.
Also the mood tracker is a good one..it definitely would be useful โจ๐ฅ
Thank you Aanchal ๐๐
The 4 domains were from an inspiration I got from Ali Abdal's new yr workshop.
And tracker coz, it's a website right, not a simple daily journal with prompts, I wanted it to be more useful and more dynamic.
Youโre a freaking legend for building this solo. Stuff like this honestly gets me excited to try journaling again.
Thank you ๐
Yup, I wanted it to be really helpful, hence i added the different prompts and I wanted it to be more dynamic, hence I added the charts.
Love it!
Thank you!
This is my favorite.
You make it hard to chose ๐คง๐
All the best
Thank you so much ๐๐๐๐ฅน
Awesome one!!!
What made it awe-worthy for you?
This is a good one.
I really like it, an Ai Powered custom journal+ tracker with visualization.
Thank you for your feedback.
And yup, this is my favorite project as well ๐
