Coding an app for autistic teens and adults to maintain friendships

Summer

I love coding apps and am autistic. Thought about coding an app for autistic users to help maintain and form better friendships and leave potentially unsafe ones -> not like a network, more so a roadmap for monitoring how each relationship develops after meeting the person.

How do you currently deal with maintaining friendships? I find it very difficult for obv reasons. Would you say an autistic mental health app is needed or not really helpful? Thanks!

  • it's a great idea. I hope you have fun creating it too.

    how do I maintain friendships?

    It is hard work for me but getting easier now that autism is more understood.

    what do you want to accomplish with your app exactly?

    I would like to talk with you about that along in your process and kibitz when appropriate.
