Build a personal asset management application that helps users decide whether to repair, replace, claim a warranty, or continue using an item.
Users can register electronics, appliances, furniture, vehicles, and other durable purchases with purchase date, purchase price, warranty terms, service history, current condition, repair estimates, and replacement options.
For each item, provide:
Warranty Timeline: Track coverage dates, required documents, exclusions entered by the user, and upcoming expiration reminders.
Repair-versus-Replace Calculator: Compare immediate repair costs, expected future maintenance, replacement price, and estimated remaining useful life.
Scenario Analysis: Test optimistic, typical, and pessimistic repair outcomes using editable assumptions.
Evidence Checklist: Organize invoices, serial numbers, photographs, and service reports.
Ownership Cost History: Calculate accumulated purchase, maintenance, and repair spending.
Decision Record: Store the chosen action, the reasoning, and the assumptions used.
Household Overview: Highlight expensive recurring failures and items approaching warranty expiration.
Include import/export, search, local reminders where supported, and realistic sample records.
Avoid pretending to predict an item's exact lifespan. Clearly label estimates, let users adjust uncertainty, and distinguish warranty information entered by the user from terms verified against an official source.
