+    <p>StudyHouse is an application aimed to make its users more productive. Through reinforcing techniques, the goal is that as a user, you feel motivated to do your work and rewarded when you complete it. After starting a session, you will receive coins based on the amount of time you were productive for. Once you have chosen to end the timer, the coins earned can be used to unlock furniture and themes to customize your very own study house! The more coins you earn the more you can personalize your study house.

+        Why not stay home and study today?</p>
