FIXORA — Spot it. Report it. Fix it.
Inspiration
We noticed that students often see problems on campus like broken fans, leaking taps, damaged benches, or faulty projectors. Many of these problems are reported verbally but can easily be forgotten.
We wanted to create a simple way for students to report these problems and help the college track them.
What it does
FIXORA allows students to:
- Report a campus problem
- Add a photo and location
- Describe the issue
- Check the status of their complaint
College staff can view reported problems and update their status until the issue is fixed.
How we built it
We focused on creating a simple and easy-to-use web application.
The main parts are:
Student → Report Problem → Staff → Fix Problem → Update Status
We kept the design simple so that anyone can use it without technical knowledge.
Challenges we ran into
As first-time hackathon participants, our biggest challenge was understanding how to turn a real-world problem into a working digital solution.
We also had to think about making the system simple enough for both students and college staff.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we created a solution for a real problem that students and colleges can face every day.
FIXORA provides a clear way to report, track, and resolve campus problems instead of letting complaints get forgotten.
What we learned
We learned how important it is to understand the user's problem before building a solution.
We also learned about project planning, user-friendly design, teamwork, and presenting an idea as a practical solution.
What's next for FIXORA — Spot it. Report it. Fix it
In the future, we would like to add:
- Notifications for students
- Automatic location detection
- Better issue tracking
- A mobile application
- Reports and analytics for college management
Our vision is simple:
Make every campus problem visible, trackable, and solvable.
