A location-based chat app targeted towards students, designed to allow for "cold-approches" in a global pandemic | Winner of the Fall 2020 UARK ACM Hackathon (meaning I coded it in < 24 hrs, so excuse the bugs)
- It's an acronym for what the app's purpose is!
- Phonetically, it sounds like "sick talk", which sums up the app exactly: it's a way for students to talk safely in a time of sickness (I.E COVID)
- It's a bit of a riff on the wildly popular app, TikTok
- Chat function to interact with people nearby!
- Customizeable profile (to find similar interests)
- Discovery radius picker
- Non-persistent chats (they disappear like an actual conversation!)
- Login that cross references data with mock student IDs in a database to verify a user is a student!
- ^Persistent login so you don't have to login everytime!
