Project NOVA — A Helping Hand is an all-in-one community platform I built for students and young adults — combining help, learning, and well-being in one place.
Key modules I built:
A Helping Hand Network: Post/Find help requests for NGO, volunteer & community support.
Study Syllabum: Organized syllabus, notes & resources — easy to access for exam prep.
Music Zone: Curated focus, relaxation & motivation music player for study breaks.
Games Zone: Light, stress-buster mini-games to keep users engaged and reduce anxiety.
Why I built it: Students need more than just academic content — they need emotional support, focus tools, and a break. NOVA brings it together.
Tech: React / Next.js, Tailwind CSS, Cloudflare Pages, Modular Component Architecture, Fast & Mobile-first Live: project-nova-a-helping-hand.pages.dev
This project shows my ability to build a multi-feature product with good UX, not just a landing page — planning, IA, and execution from scratch.
