Very cool, looks very polished. 2 points of feedback:

  1. Why only frontend and backend topics? I would love see some mathematical or CS topics.

  2. The back button doesn't work on the site which I always find very annoying.

Feeling this also. I was considering making something similar that's more math oriented because it makes a huge difference having someone to talk about these ideas with. Math in particular can get pretty lonely sometimes!

Also just wanted to comment to OP that the site is really cool, feels quite polished. It's impressive that you're just 18 and you created such a cool and seamless experience. If you add mathematical topics (or create some way for users to add topics), I'll be a lot more likely to use it! Another suggestion would be to create some way for me to invite others to use the site -- some shareable link like "Join <user>'s study group!" not necessarily with that verbiage

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! Which main topics within Math would you like to see on the app? Will implement them right away!

Or non-tech topics actually, I'm self-studying art and finance at the moment, would be pretty cool to find people to connect with

Strong agree with 1. There are so many more areas for self-study. Making those available as categories vastly expands the potential audience for this app.

In addition to math I'd love to see:

-Probability

-Statistics

-Music (could have sub-categories)

-Philosophy

Great work still!

+ History

+ Literature/Art/Opera

+ Logic (technically a Philosophy subject)

+ Kinesiology/Anatomy/Bodybuilding

+ Biomed

+ Physics and it's supporting maths

Hey there! 1: That's a great idea! Which topics within CS and Math would you like to see? I will implement them right away! 2: Do you mean the native browser back button? For me it does work in Chrome! What browser do you use?
