Abstract:In the last decade, there has been a significant increase in hobby gardeners. Garden- ing offers benefits to physical, psychological and social health. However, gardeners can experience challenges, such as task management. This thesis explores the de- velopment of TuinMoes, an adaptive task management system designed to support hobby vegetable gardeners. Through a combination of literature review, state-of-the-art analysis and user in- terviews, key motivators and challenges were identified. The TuinMoes prototype was developed through an iterative ideation process, integrating task management with a visual garden aiming to enhance task visibility at a glance. A user evaluation with 20 participants assessed the glancibility of the overview page. Box plots indicated an improvement in task glancibility with the overview, how- ever, statistical analysis revealed no significant difference between the overview page and a traditional task list. Future research could focus on exploring the long-term impact of the platform in a real-world gardening setting.
