Recognizing the difficulty of making friends at UBC, especially for students with social anxiety, we propose CourseMate to be a solution.
CourseMate is an inclusive and accessible platform tailored for students with similar course schedules.
Compatibility is determined by the likeness of schedules, creating an easy way to connect.
CourseMate is a great starting point for conversations, fostering connections among students.
CourseMate also enables students to reach out for study buddies or assistance with course content.
Building a supportive community for students facing the challenges of university life.
Backend: We utilized Python to develop the backend of our project and Flask to combine the backend with our frontend, and Pickle for persistence.
Frontend: For the frontend we utilized a mixture of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Due to the fact that Flask uses a lot of esoteric syntax, it was difficult to integrate frontend components utilizing HTML.
It also proved to be difficult to design an aesthetically pleasing interface using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Accomplishments we’re proud of and what we learned:
We built a fully functional app under 11.5 hours.
We all learned a lot when it comes frontend development, and it wasn’t just the basics, rather in our view, we made it very aesthetically pleasing.
We all worked collaboratively, played to each other’s strengths, and didn’t hesitate to help one another in times of need.
What is next for CourseMate?
Seamless Messaging: Effortlessly connect with fellow students across universities on the portal.
Automated Data Input: Utilizing web scraping and API integration, CourseMate eliminates the need for manual data entry.
Effortless Connectivity: Make groups and connect with people of similarly classed individuals without hassle.
Universal Accessibility: Designed for use in all universities, CourseMate extends its benefits beyond UBC.
