Overview

Pocket Productivity Hub is a mobile application designed to bring multiple productivity tools into a single, personalized workspace.

The project started as an experiment in AI-assisted development to explore how quickly a functional app could be built by combining traditional software development practices with modern AI coding tools.

The MVP was developed in approximately one week, with AI assisting in project scaffolding, component generation, UI implementation, repetitive development tasks, refactoring, and debugging.

The application is built with React Native and Expo, while Appwrite provides backend functionality and authentication services.

AI-assisted development workflow

Approximately 90% of the initial implementation was generated using AI coding assistants. Multiple tools were used during development, including Cursor AI, Trae AI, and DeepSeek.

AI was primarily used for:

  • Project development: scaffolding, component generation, UI implementation, and CRUD functionality
  • Code improvement: refactoring, styling, and debugging
  • Problem solving: exploring implementation approaches and resolving development issues

All generated code was reviewed, tested, and adjusted manually before being integrated into the project.
