🎓 College Skill Network

A college-exclusive networking platform where students can discover peers based on skills, form hackathon teams, and ask technical or academic questions.


🚀 Overview

College Skill Network combines the power of:

  • 🔗 Skill-based networking (like LinkedIn)
  • ❓ Q&A system (like StackOverflow)
  • 🤝 Hackathon team builder
  • 🏫 College community platform

👉 The goal is to help students collaborate, solve problems, and build projects together efficiently.


❗ Problem Statement

Students in colleges often struggle to:

  • Find peers with specific skills (Flutter, ML, Backend, etc.)
  • Build hackathon teams quickly
  • Get help with coding or assignments
  • Discover talented students within their college

Current solutions like WhatsApp groups and random DMs are:

  • Unstructured
  • Inefficient

✅ This platform solves that by creating a skill-based ecosystem inside the college.
