Hello there!!  |
| Hope youâre feeling a little refreshed from yesterdayâs reflection day! |
| Today youâll be building an audio-to-text note-taking app. |
Time to transcribe  |
# Task for the day  |
 Project: Build an Audio to Text Note-Taking App |
| Estimated time: 30 mins |
| Tools: Glide |
##  Shot of Inspiration |
| The hardest part is starting. Once you get that out of the way, youâll find the rest of the journey much easier. |
| â Simon Sinek |
| Congrats! Youâve done the hardest part by committing and showing up to learn. |
### Context building  |
| An audio-to-text note-taking app is a tool that converts spoken words into written text, efficiently capturing and organising your thoughts. Itâs like having a personal assistant that jots down everything you say, making sure no brilliant idea or important detail slips away. |
| Imagine youâre in a meeting, and instead of scrambling to write down notes, you speak your thoughts and have them accurately transcribed and organized automatically. How useful would that be? The traditional method of note-taking can be slow and sometimes distracting. Handwriting can be hard to decipher later, and typing out notes during a conversation can disrupt the flow. Your audio to text note-taking app will address these issues! |
| With an easily-accessible tool like this, youâll also be able to search through these notes later with neatly organised topics covered, decisions made and action items. |
| Perhaps an audio-to-text note-taking app could also be a useful tool to use on future reflection days? |
 In this lesson youâll learn: |
| – The basics of Glide‘s app builder interface. – How to integrate Glideâs AI-powered âAudio to textâ functionality to create a dynamic note-taking application. – You’ll also gain a deeper understanding of no-code development and the principles of data management. By working with Glide, you’ll learn about the basics of app interfaces and user experience design. |
### Let’s prep  |
| Whatâs Glide? |
| Glide makes it easy to create custom apps on top of your existing data, no advanced technical expertise required: |
| 1. Sync with existing data sources like spreadsheets, a SQL database or build your data source from scratch. 2. Use the drag-and-drop Glide builder to create custom interfaces. 3. Add functionality with computed data, AI, and integrations. 4. Securely share your Glide apps with granular control over access and permissions. |
| What can you build in Glide? |
| With Glide, you can build a wide range of applications, from personal productivity tools to complex business solutions. This includes project management tools, event planners, inventory trackers, and even personal finance managers. |
| Glideâs core concept. |
| Glide’s core concept revolves around the use of ‘Components.’ These are pre-built elements that you can add to your app, such as lists, buttons, images, and charts. They are akin to digital Legos, where each component can be customized and combined to build the structure and look of your app. |
| Get set up. To make your life easier when you build, itâs good to get some practical stuff out the way first. Follow these steps so youâre ready to build: |
