Study Buddies

Inspiration

Speed friending events are too forced and intense. We aim to create a more relaxed, social environment where students can work too

What it does

Enables students to easily organise study sessions together with other students

How we built it

We developed a webapp using CSS, JS, HTML for frontend, Python and Flask for backend, and some UCL APIs for authentication and querying available rooms

Challenges we ran into

We were all inexperienced in using Flask and struggled to understand the UCL API documentation, especially as the LibCal API had only been produced the day before we started using it

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Managed to authenticate the users using UCL API's and query all available places at UCL as well as creating a clean, functioning website

What we learned

How to collaborate well together and split tasks accordingly as well as handling callbacks in Flask

What's next for Study Buddies

Apply filters to rooms and sessions available to present what the user desires. Add extentions to link social medias in the app
