Project Details

The app is built with modern iOS development tools and focuses on user accessibility and ease of use:

• SwiftUI: Used for building intuitive and responsive UIs.
• MVVM Architecture: Separates business logic from UI for better scalability and maintenance.
• OpenAI API: Integrated to deliver personalized content and breathing insights.
• Smooth Animations: Enhances the experience, especially useful for older users who benefit from calm visual feedback.

During the development of this project, the following areas were explored and implemented:

1. Breathing Animation Design: Carefully crafted animations for each breathing method to visually guide the user.
2. Mood-Based Personalization: Mapping emotional states to specific breathing patterns.
3. API Integration: Working with OpenAI’s API to fetch dynamic, daily content.
