Open-source launch on the Lifestyle test app

Join us for an open-source webinar on the Lifestyle test app, developed by the EU Horizon 2020-funded project PSLifestyle in collaboration with European citizens.

During the webinar on Dec 11, we will present an overview of the app, discuss how users have engaged with it so far and review the app’s architecture and technical decisions. We’ll also give insights on how to utilise the code to create your own local Lifestyle test or another software product that leverages the Lifestyle test code. Additionally, you can explore ways to contribute to the development of the existing code. 

What makes the Lifestyle test unique?
The Lifestyle test stands out in two ways. Firstly, it is easy and quick to use and provides an accurate country-specific climate impact and personalised action suggestions to get users started right away.

Secondly, the app collects user data fully anonymously, capturing insights into people’s lifestyle impacts, the changes they aim to make, and the factors that help or hinder these changes. One of the project’s goals is to share the app as open-source content, facilitating the involvement of interested parties working on similar challenges. Join us!
