Inspiration

As computer science students, we've often struggled with learning programming languages and other development tools purely for learning them. Motivation-based learning lacks purpose, and meaningful application and usually has high drop-off rates. Learning skills to implement a project increases the chances of you actually finishing what you started and keeps interest high until the end.

What it does

doit. connects learners looking to learn skills through projects of varying difficulty and complexity to those who need these projects made for free / stupidly low costs (costs can be kept low because the learners are amateurs). Projects posted by clients are broken down by doit. in tutorial-like steps to guide learners and accelerate their learning.

How we built it

The UI prototype was built completely from scratch in Figma. The operational prototype of the web app demonstrating core functionality was built on bubble.io.

Challenges we ran into

Not having programming skills handicaps you. In many instances, we wished that we had some web development background with any framework. No code platforms are restrictive, finicky and usually expensive.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We had never used Figma or created a web app before last night. Whatever you see, was built in two all-nighters.

What we learned

bubble.io is an extremely powerful no-code platform for building web apps. Moreover, having at least basic knowledge of full stack web development is essential for all individuals looking to work on products in today's day and age.

What's next for doit.

We hope to implement an AI model that will be able to break down other project categories into steps-wise tutorials. Moreover, we wish to address a few pressing snags in our business and legal model.
