A study buddy matching application project a collaboration between Google Developer Student club at PLM and Ecole d'Ingenieurs en Information (EPITA) from france
A study-buddy matching platform built with Google Developer Student Clubs — PLM and EPITA (France), helping students find compatible study partners by course, interest, and availability.
Students relied on informal groups or chance connections to find study partners
No structured way to match students by shared courses, interests, or availability
Limited communication channels made coordinating study sessions harder than it needed to be
Built a matching platform where students set study preferences and get paired with compatible partners, then coordinate directly through in-app messaging no need to leave the platform to schedule a session.
Built the frontend in Next.js with shadcn/ui and Tailwind for a consistent, component-based design system
Deployed on Vercel, enabling preview environments for cross-institution testing and validation with the EPITA (France) team
Handled user profiles, matching logic, and messaging through an API-based backend
