Co-Next: A HackMIT Connectivity Solution

Project Track Description —

My team’s project aligned with the Communication/ Connectivity track. The Connectivity track brings people together, connecting them regardless of their physical locations. These projects provide a platform for individuals to become part of a larger community, opening communication channels (both real-time and asynchronous) to help people connect with long-lost friends, meet new acquaintances with similar interests, challenge existing viewpoints, and more (learn more).

Goal —

My team identified that in light of COVID-19, we want to find ways to build online communities that would ease incoming students into college life. We decide to focus on building a social experience for first-years to be connected with fellow classmates based on personal interests, and optional demographic information.

Tools —

• Figma

• Microsoft PowerApps

• Xcode

• Canva

My Contribution —

Most of the work my team did was split evenly. I designed the logo, worked on the profile & org match screens, and created our demo video.
