Nag.bot is progressing nicely

The past few weeks have seen significant progress in the development of Nag.bot, an AI-driven accountability partner app designed to help users reach their goals and spend their time wisely.

Key Features Implemented

  1. Authentication and Profile Setup: Early in August, foundational work was laid out with the implementation of user authentication. This was a critical step to ensure that users can securely access and manage their accounts. Following the authentication setup, basic profile management features were introduced, allowing users to personalize their experience within the app.
  2. Chat Functionality: A major focus has been on building a robust chat system, which is central to the user experience in Nag.bot. The chat now supports functional communication, with a server-side prompt system that enables AI-driven responses. Additionally, the frontend has been optimized to handle real-time conversations, ensuring a smooth and responsive user experience.
  3. Error Notifications and Markdown Support: To enhance usability, an error notification system was integrated into the chat. This helps users quickly identify and address issues during their interactions with the app. The chat also supports markdown, allowing for formatted text, which is particularly useful for displaying structured information and links within conversations.
  4. UI/UX Enhancements: Significant attention has been given to refining the user interface. The chat now includes a list styling feature, making it easier for users to navigate through messages. Additionally, the text input area has been improved to dynamically adjust as users type, providing a more intuitive and user-friendly experience. A standard button component has been added to maintain consistency across different parts of the app.
  5. Conversation Initiation from Home Screen: One of the more recent updates allows users to start a conversation directly from the home screen. This update is aimed at making it easier for users to dive into the chat with the AI, streamlining the process of getting the support they need right from the start. The starter tile on the home screen now forwards users to the chat with pre-seeded prompts, creating a seamless transition into the conversation.

Looking Ahead

With the core functionalities of authentication, chat, and error handling in place, the focus will now shift to refining these features based on user feedback. Additionally, there are plans to further enhance the AI’s capabilities, enabling it to provide more personalized and insightful responses to users’ queries and challenges.

Stay tuned for more updates as Nag.bot continues to evolve into a powerful tool for personal accountability and goal management.
