Our App is a interview preparation video conferencing web app with unique features to help students prepare well for their interview and boost their confidence, its like a playground for programmers.
The problem programmers playground solves
A lot of students face issues like hesitation, nervousness and getting blankout during an interview, the reason behind this is lack of preparation, in-person interaction and poor communication skills, we addressed this issue that some students are skillful programmers and have proffiecient writing skills but are unable to express their views and frame their ideas while communicating.
So me and my team has build programmers playground which is a web application that provide students with facilities to access questions of different subjects that are mostly asked in an interview, during a video conference, so that the students can prepare for the interviews with their friends, classmates, mentors and even with family members. As all the resources are available on the internet why not have something that can make use of the resources and can help people save their time, prepare well and help them boost their confidence at the same time not to mention the golden plus point which is increasing the chances of an individual's placement and job security, a group of programmers can come together and ask questions to each other during a conference which are listed in the app also practice answers and have fun together as well while learning and preparing in the best way possible.
Programmers Playground have another key features which is preparation links, we have even provided youtube links for the preparation and its very simple to access, just one click and you are on the youtube channel which can help you prepare for different subject. this will save a lot of time of an individual trying to search for content online and will also help in avoiding unnecessary scrolling.
Another key feature is cool and simple ui, a user can interact with the application without getting confused in any feature, the interface of programmers playground is very simple and straight forward displaying all the features nicely yet looks very eye-catching and attractive so user never get board.
Challenges we ran into
Creating something new comes with great enthusiasm but it may have challenges sometimes, while building up our project as a team we surely got an opportunity to learn together , not only about how to code but also to manage working together in a group as one.
We as a team faced many challenges, as intiallly we were working on flutter and firebase but after we installed firebase due to an error in build.gradle we had to switch from flutter and firebase to next.js , typescript and tailwind css, we tried fixing the error n number of times with the help of our mentors and connections which was quite overwhelming, but as we were enjoying both learning and working we planned on changing tech stack on the mid evaluation day.
It surely felt like a piece of cake initially, but later we found ourselves in a tight spot while adding questions to the dropdown and nested dropdown that seemed quite a bit difficult task as this was our first time exploring these tech stack . But we are glad as we resolved the error later. Even after facing these challenges we stood together as a team and were in harmony since the beginning and were a constant support for each other.
