The following site documents the design process of our CS 220 final project. Our final product is a prototype of an app called "Friendsley", designed with gratitude in mind. The app has "daily question" feature with chat and scheduling integrations that connect students even after graduation. We arrived at this app idea through user interviews and by identifying our problem statement: Wellesley College seniors are worried about losing the friendships and relationships that they have created on campus upon graduation.
Through user interviews, analysis, and persona development, we come up with a problem statement that we will address through our designs.
