Hälsoapp : Applikation hos Skatteverket

Sammanfattning

The purpose of this project has been to develop an application that promotes physical activity and health, particularly for individuals with sedentary jobs. By making exercise measurable and rewarding through a point system, the goal is to create motivation for increased movement in everyday life. To achieve this, a web application has been developed where users can register activities, earn points based on duration and type of exercise, and track their own and others' performance via a leaderboard. The application features a user friendly, responsive interface built with Angular, a backend developed in Java/ Spring Boot, and data storage in MySQL. Communication is handled via a REST API, and security is ensured through JWT authentication. The result is a functioning application where users can create profiles, log in, register activities, and receive weekly summaries. User testing was conducted to identify areas for improvement in both interface and functionality. The conclusion is that it is possible, with relatively simple technical implementation, to create a digital tool that encourages physical activity while handling data in a structured and secure manner. There is potential for further development of the application, for example by adding social features.
