Description

ProPairs is a web application that matches compatible teammates for group projects based on their Myers-Briggs personality types. The application suggests potential partners with similar interests, values, and communication styles, and allows users to see their compatibility rating as a pair and as a team. The application is hosted on a secure server and can be accessed from any device with an internet connection.

Features

• Compatibility: See one-on-one compatibility ratings.
• Team Compatibility: Model predicted compatibility of up to five team members.
• User Authentication: Create a personal account and log in to access the application's features.

Getting Started

To get started, visit the website to sign up for an account. You'll need your MBTI. If you know it, great! If not, take a quick quiz to discover your personality type.

Instructions

1. Once signed in, view your your profile. See your teams and user details. Is something not quite right? Update your username, email, or password.
2. Build a team: Enter a project title and description. Add up to four users to your team.
3. Search users: Search by personality type, name, email, or all. Navigate to profile page of a user you're interested in.
4. Manage teams: View project details, team compatibility. We know projects pivot and needs change- update project title, description, and members as needed.
5. Log out when you're done!

Technologies Used

React.js for building user interfaces. React Bootstrap, CSS, and Material UI for styling. Node.js and Express.js for building a GraphQL API. MongoDB as the database management system. Mongoose ODM for modeling data in MongoDB. bcrypt for password hashing and JSON Web Token (JWT) for authentication. Heroku and MongoDB Atlas for deployment.
