Why I Built Vape Assist

Vape Assist started as a small concept tool in the same spirit as FocusTask - a simple, practical app that solves a real, everyday problem rather than a purely academic exercise. The idea was to give users a quick way to log usage, see the cost add up over time, and set a goal to work towards, without a cluttered interface getting in the way.

What I Learned

  • Working with localStorage to persist user data between sessions
  • Building simple data visualisations (running totals and progress towards a goal)
  • Designing a minimal interface that stays out of the user’s way

What’s Next

Future updates may include reminders, weekly summaries, and the ability to export progress data.
