Developing a Life Goal and Bucket List Tracking App
Table of Contents
Hi Guys, I’m super pumped about building this bucket list tracking app! 🎉 This isn’t just another project—it’s something I genuinely want to make awesome.
I’ve been thinking a lot about how people set life goals, track their achievements, and get inspired by others, and I want to bring all of that into one simple, fun, and useful app.

Taking This From Idea to Reality
I’ll be handling everything end-to-end—starting with market research, designing an intuitive UI, coding the entire thing (React Native for the frontend, PocketBase for the backend), and even figuring out marketing and scaling strategies. It’s a massive challenge, but that’s what makes it exciting!
##
Why This App?
I realized most people either forget their dreams or don’t have a proper way to track them. This app will help people document their goals, celebrate their achievements, and even get inspired by others. Plus, for travelers, it’ll double as a place to store memories.

- Privacy & Sharing – Users can keep their bucket list private or share it with friends.
- Achievement Badges & Timeline – Earn badges for completed goals and have a timeline showcasing all achievements.
- Personal Website – Every user will have a mini-website displaying their public goals and achievements.

What’s Next?
Right now, I’m in the design phase, making sure the user experience is smooth and fun. Also, I don’t want users to start with a blank screen—so when they log in, they’ll get a chance to add things they’ve already achieved in life. It should feel rewarding from the start!
