CampusQuest – A Student Portal Overhaul
Description and use
CampusQuest is a unified student portal that streamlines campus navigation, event discovery, study group matching, and lost‑and‑found, addressing fragmented university systems.
Problem
Students struggle to locate lectures, events, and resources due to fragmented, outdated university portals.
Outcome
CampusQuest delivers a streamlined, mobile‑friendly student experience, reducing time spent searching for rooms and events, and fostering study collaboration.
Workflow
- Identify core student pain points (navigation, events, social connection).
- Design a unified dashboard with interactive campus map and event feed.
- Implement study‑group matchmaking and lost‑and‑found modules.
- Iteratively prune non‑essential features to maintain performance.
- Deploy on Vercel and host source on GitHub.
- Gather user feedback and plan roadmap (AI scheduler, dark mode, push notifications).
Evidence
Picture this: It’s Tuesday, 8:55 AM. You have a crucial lecture in exactly 5 minutes, but the room number just changed. You’re frantically scrolling through a clunky university portal that looks like it hasn't been updated since 2004, and suddenly... the site crashes.
CampusQuest isn't just another boring student portal.
Interactive Campus Navigation: No more wandering around building 'C' trying to find room '304B'. Get straight to the point.
Centralized Event Hub: From hackathons to free pizza in the quad, see everything happening on campus in one clean feed.
Study Group Matchmaking: Stop studying alone! Find out who is grinding for the same Data Structures exam at the library right now.
Digital Lost & Found: Left your favorite water bottle in the lab? Post it here and let the campus community help you track it down.
The result? A sleek, focused, and actually useful tool that I'm incredibly proud of.
