The study was aimed at developing a web-based mental health tracking application for the students of Makerere University, to enable them manage signs that could be indicators of bad mental health and offer resources to help them alleviate these signs. The objectives of the study were to identify the requirements, design, implement and test the mental health tracking application. The methodology used was the waterfall process model methodology which included; identifying the requirements, designing, implementing, testing and validating the mental health tracking application.
Given the increasing concern about mental health issues among the students, this project focused on creating a mental health tracking application. The primary goal was to create a platform that can enable the students manage signs that could be indicators of declining mental health. The application enables users to log their mood and track their progress over time, access therapy, a resource library and a section for journaling.
