Github Challenge: Arise - Mindful Morning Planner

This is a submission for the GitHub Copilot Challenge : New Beginnings

What I Built

I believe every day is a new beginning, just like Amazon’s ‘Day One’ culture. My morning routine starts with some deep breathing. I take three deep breaths and then write down the three most important tasks I want to accomplish that day. This helps me stay focused on what really matters and what I can actually get done. I’m not a big fan of having too much on my plate and working nonstop. I think the best way to be productive is to focus on just three things and do them well. That is what I have tried to do with the GitHub challenge in a day.

Arise is a mindful morning planner. Start your day with a quick minute of deep breathing and writing down the top three important things you want to tackle for the day.

Copilot Experience

GitHub Copilot has been a game-changer for me! From the very beginning, it’s been a lifesaver. I usually spend a good hour setting up a new Next.js project with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS. But with Copilot, it was all done in seconds! It understood my needs and guided me through creating a functional and clean base project effortlessly.

Component creation was another area where Copilot really impressed me. Whether I wanted to make a button with fancy styling or add animations with libraries like Framer Motion, Copilot’s chat suggestions were spot-on. It helped me write beautifully styled components with animations that felt both intuitive and polished. In fact, the autocomplete feature often suggested animation types and transitions that perfectly matched what I had in mind—sometimes even better than I had imagined.

One of the most exciting moments was when I was creating a store. Writing application logic for state management can be a real pain, but Copilot made it a breeze. As I started typing, its autocomplete suggestions almost read my mind, offering exactly what I needed. With just a tap of the tab key, my code was seamlessly generated, saving me tons of time and effort.

Conclusion

This hackathon was an absolute blast! Working on ‘Arise’ with Copilot was a breeze. The autocomplete and the chat feature were like having a coding buddy. They helped me stay focused and keep coding without getting distracted. I could concentrate on the core logic and user experience, knowing that my super smart AI buddy was there to lend a hand. Thanks for the challenge and for giving me the confidence that I can complete apps in a day.
