This website allows UIUC students to find the perfect roommate match instead of having to scroll through many profiles in the current UIUC roommate pairing application. The website collects their personal habits along with their preferences for roommates:
- Adds them to the database with their user info and preferences
- Runs the matching algorithm
- And displays the top roommate matches on a new page for the user to see
For more details, view the full project proposal here.
