I've participated in a 24hr app making contest to get some extra points for the main event. We made a working app that helped teachers monitor kids that seem not to be active during class. You could argue it had some GDPR holes in it lol, but the main idea was that you would use it along side a meeting app like zoom, and you could see what the kids in the class had open and could also close their applications, as well as block certain websites so they couldn't use them. We should have implemented like a "are you sure you want to close this app" feature, and also a nudge feature but we didn't really had time for it. It was basically a negative reinforcement app but hey, the judges gave us the most points because they said this approach actually works.

Anyways it was really fun making it, since it was out first time (me and my colleague's) making something using electron and Socket.IO. 😄

Ps. Ama share a link to the GitHub repo if anyone is interested 😁
