// the problem
I kept forgetting to water my plants. A calendar reminder would have fixed it, but I'd just bought a pack of NFC stickers on impulse and wanted an excuse to use them — so I built an app instead. Tapping a sticker on a pot logs the watering, and a push notification nudges me when it's been ten days. The unplanned upside: my roommate can check the app and see whether a plant has already been watered before he waters it again.
