@surendra_reddy4 I'm having the same issue. Hoping to use this with my 12yo son who could use some help with organizing assignments. :)

@clayostrom1 ok. Let's wait response from product owner on this issue.

@clayostrom1 @surendra_reddy4 I'm looking into the issue - you should still be able to create/complete assignments, but I see the Complete Assignments is not showing. This problem should be fixed within a few hours - sorry for the inconvenience.

@clayostrom1 @tikaa No probs. Thanks for the update.

Hi, Product Hunt. I'm Tika, a 14 year old from England, UK. I have been learning to develop full-stack web apps using React for a little over 2 months now. For the past two months, Preplar has been my main focus. So far, from this project I have learned the basics of React, MongoDB and Express. Preplar allows you to view, create and complete your homework assignments. Simply create an account, and add a new assignment with the ‘New Assignment’ button, in which you can add your subject, task and, optionally, the date that assignment is due. You will be able to view this assignment, along with the others on the main app page, along with adding tags for categorising your work, or tasks. I encourage you to try Preplar, and leave feedback for any improvements or suggestions you may have.

Great product Tika. Would it be possible to edit the tabs colors? That would help some color coding - I will test it out with my 7 and 8 yo. sons. Tks!

@igorabt while I don't plan on adding custom colour coding, currently the way the colours work is calculated by the name: so if two subjects have the same name, they display the same colour, the same with tags. Hope your sons enjoy Preplar

@igorabt @tikaa Awesome. Thanks a lot, Tika!

Hi, where do you host the user's data?
Tika

@daniel_j_ All the data is stored on a MongoDB Atlas cluster, along with Bcrypt hashing used on the passwords. No other data is collected from the user.

Congrats! This is a great product for just 2 months of using react. Right now it is just for personal use, right? May be interesting to have a teachers access to enter homework for the whole class. Definitely looks better already than Moodle (which my university used)

@_lhermann It is just for personal use, that's correct - it's more of a homework diary. I know Moodle is similar but is more of a checklist for teachers to set pupils and has a different purpose to what Preplar is. Thanks for the feedback!

I like the design and the colors. A dark mode would be nice. Maybe, offer a way to display the dates in other formats than UK. I’d rather see 11/22 for example, or even better 11/22/20 with the year, please. Great job!
