This is a submission for the Wix Studio Challenge: Community Edition.
I built a niche fitness community platform to help people workout everyday and keep themselves fit.
My Community Platform
I made a gamified fitness community for the generation that is very busy and sits mostly in front of computer most of the time.
A Community shouldn't just be about discussion, it should help everyone in the community get better at what they are doing.
This community I made has commit graph similar to Github, but here we track if you have performed any sort of physical activity every 6 hrs, every day.
This is made for everyone, but mostly for professionals to inspire each other to get out of their desk and do some physical activity.
I also have added streak to give people incentive to keep coming back and get themselves better one bit at a time.
We also have challenges, completing which would earn you badge on your profile.

Development Journey
I didn't have much time, since I started on 26th, so had to rush a bit and didn't have opportunity to add all the features I wanted.
But after researching a bit I realized for the community I was building I needed a lot more customization, which is why I decided to not use the default Group or forum app, since it was very hard to customize for what I wanted.
So, I built custom members area, to accommodate by requirements. The commit graph is made using repeaters :).
code: Will open-source the code after the challenge :)

This looks like a unique and engaging fitness platform! Out of curiosity, how do you manage the reminders for checking in every 6 hours, and is that customizable for users?
