A glimpse into our project

A message for you
Hi Sir, before we make our introduction, we would like to extend our warmest welcome to you for joining onboard the Mentoring Team for Orbital 2022. We hope that you have a great time here.

In today's age and society, physical board and card games are no longer a commonsight and we hope to develop a platform that not only rents out board games, but also monthly events as well as communities. Through this application, we hope to rekindle the kampong spirit, form a close knitted community as well as have a respite from the daily hectic lifestyle. The following tech stack will be used for this project:

1) Mobile Development (By Wen Jun)

• Flutter

2) Web Development (By Marcus)

• React
• TypeScript
• NextJS

3) Backend Development (By Wen Jun)

• ExpressJS (Server) / Cloud Function or AWS (Serverless)
• Auth: Firebase
• Database: Firebase / MongoDB
• File Storage: Firebase Cloud Storage / AWS S3

You might be wondering, why is the backend so undecided? This is because Wen Jun is currently making careful planning for the backend. As we mentioned before, this application is going live and we are targeting the entire Singapore population, so we need to make careful planning. We intend to take it one step further and design our app such that it is reliable, on top of maintainability and scalability. This means that we will be adopting fault finding in our system and adopting chaos testing and this is where we require your expertise in making our product a reality. Please do not hesitate to contact us to find out more about our products.

Good day Mr Vikhyath Choradia, We are team ConnectiNUS and our team consists of Chan Chang Yu, Linus, and Ivan Chin Yue Ze! Below is the link for our group's proposal, poster, and video pitch: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1so9dFjJfwFL_5PBEn1EGDg2oP56iQB35?usp=sharing As students who are able to relate to the problem of having a lack of a communication platform specifically for discussion regarding our NUS modules, our team is truly driven and passionate about creating this mobile application platform that will be able to benefit many students alike. We genuinely believe that mutual peer learning is an abundant yet untapped resource and we are aiming to leverage on this to create a solution that can benefit current and future batches of NUS students. We are eager and open to learning new tech stacks in the implementation of our application and we know that with your expertise and experience in full-stack and mobile application development, our team believes that your guidance and technical expertise will be extremely relevant and invaluable to us. More than the technical aspects of programming, we would also like to learn more about standard software engineering processes and practices that we can apply and extend to our future careers outside of Orbital! Feel free to contact any one of us at the following email addresses(e0726447@u.nus.edu OR e0773533@u.nus.edu) or telegram handle(@linuschan OR @rexlionz) if you have any additional questions for us or just want to find out more about what we do!
