What it does

From idea to funding

Students pitch projects; sponsors discover ideas, contribute funding, and follow progress.

Different roles, clear boundaries

Separate student, sponsor, and admin workflows backed by authentication and role-based access.

Payments and live updates

Stripe payment integration and socket-driven funding updates connect the product experience to its backend.

The engineering challenge

Coordinating secure socket connections with payment processing. The engineering challenge was keeping funding updates timely while handling Stripe webhook events safely on the backend.

What I’d build next

More useful analytics for campaign creators and better discovery for sponsors looking for projects to support.
