FitRPG, developed by Amira Anuar, Matt Gutierrez, and Conor Fennell at Hack Reactor, is a gamified fitness app that utilizes Fitbit data to engage users in competitions and quests, transforming fitness activities into a social game. The app integrates with the Fitbit API, allowing users to enhance their in-game characters and compete in various challenges with family and friends. The development team chose the Ionic framework for its ease of use, clean UI, and compatibility with Angular, which facilitated a smooth transition from web to mobile app development. This decision was influenced by a demonstration of Ionic's capabilities during a Hack Reactor session, leading to the use of Ionic's components to focus more on game development than UI design. Built using the MEAN tech stack, FitRPG is available on both iTunes and Google Play, and the company is currently seeking to expand its UX expertise through a Kickstarter campaign.
