Looking for someone to help with the frontend of my college project (CNP Club & Project Management System)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m a third-year CSE student working on a college project called **CNP Club & Project Management System**. The backend is already done, but I need some help developing the frontend.

I’m looking for a software developer or fellow student who could volunteer some time to help me with the UI and frontend development. Unfortunately, I can’t offer payment since this is an academic project.

I’ve also been dealing with some health issues recently, which has made it difficult for me to manage everything alone. Even a little help or guidance would genuinely mean a lot to me.

If anyone is interested in collaborating, please comment or DM me. I’ll share the GitHub repository link so you can check out the project.

Thank you! ❤️

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for someone to build a website together *I'm a beginner*

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm a student who has recently started learning programming. I'm a beginner and I'm learning Python. My timezone is GMT +1. My availability depends on the week.

I'd love to find some people interested in building a real website together, learning along the way and sharing ideas.

I'm still a beginner, so I'm looking for people who are also learning or who enjoy helping others grow. We could brainstorm ideas, divide tasks (frontend, backend, design, etc.) and gradually build something useful.

I'm particularly interested in web development and open to different project ideas.

What I'm looking for:

- A friendly, collaborative environment.

- Free collaboration on a personal project.

- Communication in English.

No need to be an expert. Just bring curiosity, consistency and a willingness to learn!

Comment or send me a message if you're interested.

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for a recreational programming buddy. (NO AI)

4 Upvotes

Timezone: Central standard time

Stack: Python, Java, PHP

Ive done a lot of college work with python and java as well as personal projects (mainly in python, because I only learned java recently)

Goal: Learn QBE and arm64 assembly

Disclaimer: I dont want a buddy who uses AI to code,

AI (primarily llms and generative) is against my morals

Recreationally, I'm learning the QBE compiler backend and arm64 assembly and would like to find a coding buddy who is also using a lower level language to chat to. It doesn't have to be as low as QBE. Languages like C and Rust are okay, I just want someone to chat with, about what I'm learning.

It would also be really great to hear what you're working on too! I don't want this to be a one way street. Coding gets lonely.

Experience: Fresh Graduate 22F
Goals: Achieve a decent rating in CP contests

I currently am looking for just somebody who is studying DSA or related for whatever your goals are, such as LeetCode or CodeForces. It would be nice to share problems, ideas and maybe intuitive reasoning as we solve stuff.

I’m not looking for builders or people who want to do real-world projects or small businesses. Just someone who wants to study and put in the work, instead of saying how we can make more money.

DMs or Comments please ;)

Looking for a Programming Buddy

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working at a new company and have been feeling a bit overwhelmed by their tech stack: PHP, Symfony, API Platform, and Hexagonal Architecture with DDD. I'm putting in extra time outside of work to improve my skills, grow as a developer, and work towards a medior-level position.

I'm looking for someone who wants to work on projects together using tickets, build features, create PRs, review each other's code, and do plenty of pair programming. The goal is to learn from each other, solve problems together, and have fun building cool stuff along the way.

I'm a 27-year-old guy from the Netherlands and prefer using voice chat. Whether you're new to programming or a senior developer with years of experience, feel free to reach out. Let's see if we click and build something great together!

To be clear, I am not trying to make a game to sell or publish just yet, mostly making personal projects for learning. Would love to have a friend/peer to review and discuss, as well as just talk about programming in general. The rest should come naturally, I like to talk lol. Anybody interested in a low stakes friendship to help keep each other motivated to keep working? EST, schedule varies but I can usually fit time in most days.

Hi everyone,
I am a 3rd year student at T50 in USA. I am doing double major in applied maths, quantitative economics and minor in AI. I am very interested in machine learning and AI but have pretty shallow skills in fundamentals of ML, AI and basic CS skills. I am willing partner up with anyone as long as we have “similar” goals.

I am happy to study as long as needed. I prefer studying on vc just so we can hold each other accountable.

LOOKING FOR BUDDIES Looking for a Creative Coding Buddy!

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I am looking for a coding buddy to learn, share ideas and build projects together with, as I have recently started my coding journey by learning Python on Microsoft Learn and now onto Part 2 of the fundamentals.

First of all, I am on SAST time or (UTC +2) and with that I will be flexible and defs figure out a time to work with the other.

Currently I am learning Python programming, but other ventures afterward would be C++, Go, and for web development JavaScript, HTML (familiar with since I learned it in school) and CSS in the future. I will be studying for a B. IT in Software Engineering next year for 3 years, but I have been learning and enjoy it. My experience level is beginner, but I don't mind somebody who is also beginner to learn and study with or even more advanced coders who don't mind teaching.

My goal is to meet someone who is enthusiastic about coding and wants to also have a creative outlet, experiment with different techs and build projects on shared interests. If you love video games, that will also be quite great since I have crazy interest in them, and I would love to be learn the coding behind them. Importantly I am looking for a buddy to collaborate with.

Do feel free to DM me if you do not want to comment.

Making a small educational programming group

4 Upvotes

Timezone: CST
Stack: All (There is no need to stick to one language)
Experience level: Advanced
Goal: Create humanitarian coding projects

I am looking for a small group of people to make Christian coding content(3-4 people), like a programming studio. Examples include language learning of the Bible, video games in wholesome family friendly themes, IDEs, mods, game engine components, maybe geospatial work if you are inclined. I am an older 34 year old male and have been relentlessly studying Computer Science for 8 years, I am much better than someone who has been doing it 8 years.

I seek advanced programmers who are wholesome and either believe in the Christian content or can truly get behind it.

I can teach AI, how to read/write research papers, teamwork, but my main requirement is that you have actual background in Computer Science as without that you can't really do much.

I feel that is not an unreasonable request given there are plenty of CS majors who have not caught up to AI.

The way its going to work is we brainstorm good humanitarian projects and work together to create them one at a time as a hobby for our actual SWE jobs to keep up with the market.

You will have to pay for your own AI tokens though. I have Claude/ChatGPT Max plans. We can pool them(Yes there are ways to pool subscription plans) if either one of us runs out.
