What I Built (Working Prototype)

Screen	What it does
Onboarding	3-slide animated carousel with Skip / Next / Get Started
Login	Phone number input with +91 prefix, simulated Frappe auth point
Home	Personalized greeting, streak badge, progress bars, course grid
Learn	Unit list with filter pills, rigor badges, per-unit progress
Chat	AI Tutor with message bubbles, typing indicator, keyboard-aware input
Progress	Stats grid, per-course breakdown, achievements carousel
Profile	User info, settings menu, notification toggle, logout

Tech Stack: React Native (Expo SDK 53) · expo-router · Zustand · expo-sqlite · NetInfo · StyleSheet

What is NOT yet implemented (planned for DMP)

• Real Frappe REST API integration (all screens use MockData.ts)
• Real WebSocket AI Tutor chat (currently uses setTimeout simulation)
• DIKSHA API content integration
• Offline sync logic (SyncBanner detects connectivity but does not trigger data sync yet)
• OTP-based phone authentication
• Push notifications

How to Run

git clone https://github.com/Noaman-Akhtar/Tap-buddy.git
cd Tap-buddy/tap-buddy-mvp
npm install
npx expo start --clear
