App or Webpage Ideas Brainstorming
- A study app
- A workout planner/tracker
- Wordle Game
Wordle Game
- Similar to the New York Times “Wordle”
- Normal mode:
- 6 tries to guess
- Blue: letters are in the word, not correct space
- Green: letters are in the word, and in the correct space
- Grey: letters are not in the word
- A word is five letters
- 6 tries to guess
- Second mode: change number of letters, change allowed guesses, set a time limit, do specific genres or topics
- Ideas to implement
- add hints: gives letters that are in the words, reveals one
- stats/scores after every few games
- clear the screen
- Knowlege needed: webpage, user input, animations, keyboard

What I will do personally to improve my coding skills before create performance task.
Here are some ideas that I will use to learn more about coding:
- Going though the AP computer science principles videos on Khan Academy and doing their exercies.
- Watching and taking notes on the college board AP CSP videos. I will also take practice quizzes on college board.
- Going though exersices on W3 schools. This would be a great way for me to learn how to code.
