Inspiration

When I was a young high school student in 2018, I had no idea how to code but wanted to learn, so I enrolled in some random paid coding courses in C++, which were so bad that I hated coding, but the desire to learn to code kept me going. I purchased a C++ reference book and spent a significant amount of time learning the fundamentals of it. So, in general, our team's project helps to alleviate the problem of learning being tedious because we don't know where to begin or what to study. This website basically condenses the simplest guides of a specific subject to make studying easier.

What it does

This site is basically a search engine which provides relevant courses links for learning a specific language. Search button fetches the relevant courses link of what you have typed and provides them in a card. Google login helps to verify and register a user , so they could use features like bookmarks.

How we built it

We chosen to work with Chakra UI and Typescript by using next.js there is also an API we build to make sure our search engine performs it's task very precisely.

Challenges we ran into

As we are beginners , we faced many challenges like how to style the website , making it work with custom hooks and many configurations and also like some frequent errors like no working or the whole website crashing when one of our team member tried to add a login button.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of making a useful learning search platform for students and professionals. We are proud of learning both nextJs Chakra UI and their implementation quickly in a day. We made our own api and making good minimalistic designs on figma.

What we learned

we learned how to communicate as our English accents were very different , we learned basics of Figma and Canva and how to use new tools like Nextjs , chakra Ui and implement our own search indexing and algorithm , We also learned how to create our very own custom API and integrate it with preexisting ones to better serve our users

What's next for ReSearch-Engine

In the future, we wish to create our own web crawlers and index websites by ourselves and That way, results are much more accurate and useful for users
