I Built a Free Grade Calculator – Feedback Wanted!

Hey CodeNewbie fam šŸ‘‹

I’m currently working on a project called Web Grade Calculator
. The idea came from a simple problem I faced as a student: constantly stressing about what my final grade would be. Instead of guessing, I decided to build a tool that does the math for you.

✨ What it does:

Lets students enter their assignment, quiz, and exam scores.

Applies weight percentages (e.g., homework 20%, quizzes 30%, final exam 50%).

Instantly calculates the final grade or GPA.

Shows the minimum score needed on future exams to reach a target grade.

šŸ› ļø Tech behind it:

Built with JavaScript + simple web forms.

Hosted on my own domain.

Planning to add a cleaner UI and maybe a mobile-friendly version.

šŸ’” Why I built it:

To reduce the stress of not knowing where you stand in a class.

To practice turning a real-life problem into a working coding project.

To share something useful for students who need clarity before exams.

šŸ” What I’d love from you:

Any feedback on the site/tool (UX, performance, bugs).

Suggestions for features (dark mode, GPA scale options, etc.).

Ideas on how I can make the project more open-source friendly for beginner contributors.
