Most self-help apps don't offer a way to keep track of emotional states. Because app-development proved to be too overwhelming for us to handle, we created a Chrome Extension to serve as the basis for this idea. While it only works in a computer's browser, the data inputted into Google Calendar can still be accessed from a mobile device.
It provides links to self-help resources based on emotions, but more importantly, offers a way to keep track of these emotions by providing a quick access to Google Calendar's event input and pre-filling some of its fields.
We started trying to alter the HTML and CSS of calendar.google.com to include additional options that we would send to a form. We also wanted to manipulate the way some content was displayed. Unfortunately, Google Calendar is too complicated to edit by injecting JavaScript into it. By looking at other Chrome Extensions that accomplished similar goals, we found out how to manipulate the URL our popup redirects to in order to auto-fill parts of the form.
With more time, we could attempt to edit parts of the Google Calendar form, which is more similar to our original goal.
