Inspiration
We noticed that many of our friends were eager to either tutor high school students or connect with college upperclassmen for tutoring themselves. Unfortunately, our community lacked a platform that could effectively match tutors with students. This realization inspired us to create a solution that could bridge this gap.
What it does
Our platform enables users to showcase their skills and expertise in their profiles, allowing others in need of assistance to easily connect with them. It empowers users to simultaneously take on the roles of both tutor and student, fostering a supportive environment where individuals can benefit while also contributing to the community.
How we built it
We built it through Spring Boot, and...
Challenges we ran into
As a relatively new team in this field, we encountered several challenges, particularly in terms of collaborative work and version control using platforms like Github. Additionally, we struggled with separating the frontend and backend aspects of our project, experiencing difficulties in connecting the two, such as fetching data from the database and presenting it in the frontend. Designing the frontend also posed challenges due to our limited experience and time constraints.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We take pride in the ideas we generated and our ability of collaboration through Github.
What we learned
Throughout this project, we gained valuable insights into the intricacies of designing and implementing new ideas. We deepened our understanding of effective teamwork and became more proficient in using both frontend and backend frameworks.
What's next for Untitled
While we had to work with familiar tools within our limited timeframe, we recognize several areas for improvement. Currently, our frontend lacks a traditional structure, and the backend database schema needs better security and organization. We plan to host the platform on an actual server instead of a local host, form a testing group to gather feedback from users, and develop a virtual currency system. There will always be room for refinement and enhancement.
