During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, I (the founder) was still young and found platforms like Microsoft Teams hard to use and slow. In 2023, a war broke out in Gaza and disconnected us from school for more than a year.
That’s when I asked:
“Why aren’t we building something made for students?”
So I decided to build one — with you.
- ✅ Real-time messaging (Students ↔ Teachers)
- ✅ Assignment & exam creation and submission
- 🔒 Smart anti-cheating system
- 📅 Lecture scheduling & calendar integration
- 🎥 Google Meet integration
- 🧠 Clean, age-friendly UI
- ⚡ Extremely lightweight – works with poor connectivity
We are in the early planning phase. Currently working on:
- 📋 Gathering contributors
- 🧭 Writing full project vision
- ✏️ Creating UI wireframes (coming soon)
- 🧱 Starting backend models with Django
- 🌐 Initial frontend setup with React
- 🔜 Public demo (soon!)
We welcome everyone – beginner or expert!
