Inspiration
Millions of students struggle to determine what skills they need to learn, what projects they should build, and how to prepare for technical interviews.
Traditional learning platforms provide the same content for everyone, regardless of individual strengths, weaknesses, or career goals.
We wanted to create an intelligent mentor that adapts to each learner and provides personalized guidance throughout their learning journey.

How we built it
We built SkillForge AI as an intelligent career development platform focused on personalization and practical learning.
The frontend was developed using React.js and Tailwind CSS to provide an interactive dashboard where users can track progress, access learning plans, and participate in mock interviews.
The backend was built using Node.js and Express to manage user data, learning recommendations, and interactions with Google Gemini.
Google Gemini powers the core intelligence layer of the platform. It analyzes user profiles, learning history, resumes, and assessment results to generate personalized recommendations and career guidance.
The application is deployed on Google Cloud, ensuring scalability, reliability, and fast performance for users worldwide.
