## Project status
If you have run out of energy or time for your project, put a note at the top of the README saying that development has slowed down or stopped completely. Someone may choose to fork your project or volunteer to step in as a maintainer or owner, allowing your project to keep going. You can also make an explicit request for maintainers.

+for the application, we are following MVVM
+Model: Handles data and business logic (e.g., represents a Robobin object).
+View: Displays the UI and interacts with the user (e.g., buttons, labels).
+ViewModel: Connects the Model to the View, providing data and commands (e.g., logic to connect to Robobin and update the status).
