CodersConnect

Inspiration

We were determined to create CodersConnect after seeing how many people were searching for team members in the Wolfjaw Community on Discord. Our goal was to develop something that would make it so much easier for people to find teammates when participating in hackathons. CodersConnect saves participants so much time by creating teams that consist of members with a variety of skills.

What it does

The CodersConnect bot prompts users in a server to enter different qualities about themselves (skillsets, skill levels, time zones). After the user enters this information, CodersConnect stores it in a database. It then sorts through people's information and builds strong teams while also displaying the reasoning behind the creation of each team.

How we built it

We built this bot through Discord App Developer, coded it in Python through VSCode, and utilized so many libraries! We implemented a GPT model and an OpenAI library to get the bot to sort through the database and create proper teams.

Challenges we ran into

We mostly struggled with getting the bot to relay the correct message to users while also sorting the teams correctly, but we were able to overcome these challenges!

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are super proud of getting the bot to properly sort teams based on the users' different inputs. Our team worked extremely hard to have this bot functioning smoothly!
