Inspired by the coffeeshop atmosphere
What it does
Buy Me Some Coffee is an asymmetric social network used to invite professionals out for coffee. The key concept is based on the idea that sharing a cup of coffee is the best way to build new professional connections. Buy Me Some Coffee is an app that allows students and professionals who want to network outside of their current social network a seamless way to invite more well-established professionals out for coffee.
How we built it
The prototype was built in two stages, Ideation, and Prototyping. We established the core idea behind the app and the key functionalities it needed to have during ideation. During prototyping, we used Figma to create the various features we needed. While the core idea behind the project remained the same through the development, some aspects(like how someone would see who they can invite for coffee) were changed during the prototyping.
Challenges we ran into
Due to our engineering background choosing the design for our prototype was difficult. However, after getting advice from design mentors, we decided on the current scheme.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
After consulting with multiple UX experts, we created a simple and functional design that we are proud of.
What we learned
We learned to use the Figma platform, as well as learning design skills from the UX professionals.
What's next for Buy Me Some Coffee
