Calm Check –Stress Analyzer

Inspiration

Engineering students often face intense academic pressure, career uncertainty, and personal challenges. During exams especially, stress builds up silently because many students hesitate to talk about their mental health due to stigma or fear of judgment.

I was inspired to build Student Stress Analyzer to create a simple, anonymous, and non-medical platform where students can quickly check their stress level and access immediate stress-relief tools without feeling exposed or overwhelmed.

What it does

Student Stress Analyzer is a web-based mental wellness dashboard designed for students.

It allows users to:

Enter their mood or stress-related inputs anonymously

Get their stress level classified as Low, Medium, or High

Instantly access non-medical stress relief tools such as:

Guided breathing exercises

Calming audio

Personalized stress-relief tips

The platform focuses on early stress awareness and prevention, not diagnosis or treatment.

How we built it

The project was built as a lightweight web application using core web technologies.

Architecture:

Frontend: Handles user input, dashboard UI, and interactions

Logic Layer: Classifies stress levels based on simple rule-based analysis

UI/UX: Dashboard layout with cards, buttons, and interactive relaxation tools

The design prioritizes simplicity, accessibility, and a calming user experience.

Challenges we ran into

Designing stress analysis logic without crossing into medical diagnosis

Keeping the UI calming while still informative

Ensuring the app stays simple and beginner-friendly within the hackathon timeline

Avoiding feature overload while focusing on a solid MVP

What we learned

How to design ethical mental wellness tools

Importance of MVP thinking in hackathons

Improving UI/UX for user comfort and clarity

Structuring a project clearly for judges and users
