Wellbeing
2023
A beautiful GUI application for Windows designed to aid in your digital wellbeing by giving reminders to rest your eyes, drink some water and do some body movement at regular intervals. A successor to Healthy Programmer, this was my project for Computer Science practical exam of Class XII.
Fun fact: Wellbeing stands for We'll be interrupting for your good.
