Looking for a Mobile App Dev Buddy – Side Project in the Health Sector

Hey everyone,

I’m currently working on a side project with the goal of turning it into a profitable venture. It’s a license-based mobile app in the health sector, and I’m happy to share more details if you're interested!

I’m looking for a like-minded developer to collaborate with—someone who has experience in mobile app development and whom I can also learn from. I have a strong background in backend and cloud technologies, with 8+ years in the automotive sector.

I’ve attempted to launch a startup before, so I’m not entirely new to the game. Even if this doesn’t turn into a full-fledged business, I’d love to connect, exchange ideas, and build something cool together.

If this sounds interesting to you, let’s chat! 🚀

Tech stack so far:

- Java, Maven, Spring Boot, Postgres, TypeScript, Vue, Hetzner Cloud, Terraform, Helm, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, ...

Suche Buddies (Germany 🇩🇪)

Hey 👋, ich möchte in meiner Freizeit Softwareprojekte umsetzten um mich dabei weiterzubilden und neue Leute kennenzulernen. Alleine ist es okay, aber die Lust geht schnell weg. In einem kleinen Team macht es gleich mehr Spaß und man kann voneinander lernen. Zudem mag ich es auch einfach so zu Reden.

Zu mir: Aktuell arbeite ich als Junior Softwareentwickler als studierter Informatiker. Ich habe Erfahrung mit ASP.NET API, SQL, Angular, React, Docker, ... Ich bin für Technologien offen.

Ich suche Buddies welche schon gewisse Erfahrung im Programmieren haben (>= 2 Jahre) 🚀.

20 year old guy. Trying to learn web development by using Freecodecamp. Looking for a buddy(s). Open to making a group even.

Still in the beginner levels of HTML and CSS but I'm planning on putting more and more hours into studying this. I am very open minded and willing to take advices. Your gender, politics, ideologies, location or age (as long as it's not a huge gap) doesn't matter to me.

A programmer on a mission! 💻🚀

Currently grinding through code, AI models, and way too much caffeine, all while prepping for my Master’s in the USA. But hey, life isn’t just about debugging—I’m also into football, UFC, and a good challenge, whether it’s on the field or in the octagon.

Me writing code: “This is pure art.” Also me when it doesn’t run: “Why am I like this?”

Oh, and I have a solid sense of memes, so expect some high-quality (and questionable) humor.

Balancing code, sports, and chaos—who else is in the same boat? Let’s connect!

Looking for Programming Buddies – Let’s Talk Code, Build Cool Stuff & Have Fun!

Hey everyone!

I’m a final-year Computer Science major specializing in AI. Most of my time goes into machine learning, but I also enjoy backend development, and while I do front-end because I have to, I really like game dev. So, if you want to chat about AI, web dev, game dev, or just programming in general—I’m all ears!

I’d love to connect with people who just want to talk code, share knowledge, bounce ideas around, and maybe even collaborate on some cool projects. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, it doesn’t matter—let’s learn from each other and have some fun!

Right now, I’m working on a small app that helps people form commuting groups for events. It’s built with Next.js, Spring Boot, and PostgreSQL, so if that sounds interesting and you want to help out, I’d love to have you on board!

I also have some other cool projects that could use a fresh perspective, so if you're up for brainstorming or coding together, let’s chat.

On top of that, I’m always down to join hackathons and game jams, so if you’re looking for a teammate, let me know!

I’m in CET, but I can probably make other time zones work. If you’re looking for someone to brainstorm ideas with, hack on projects, or just geek out over programming, hit me up! Let’s build something awesome together.

Anyone up for doing a side-project together ?

I am a full-stack React-Node developer who's always seeking to learn something by working on projects. I want someone or a group of people who have the same kind of enthusiasm for learning new things. We can brainstorm on any idea you have in mind and create a product around it. DM me if you are interested; we can create a Discord server if more people are interested in contributing to a project. Also, I am in the IST/UTC+5:30 time zone, so we can collaborate accordingly. Also, I am open to any tech stack.

Looking for buddies to write and share Devlogs with

I’ve been writing and sharing devlogs for the past couple of months via Discord, and I’ve found it’s been a great way to stay accountable and get feedback from others in the community. So far, people seem to really enjoy writing them, and it’s been cool to see everyone share their progress.

If you’re working on something interesting and want a place to share and log your experience, check out r/devlogs or join the Discord server and post in the Devlogs channel. Would love to have more people join in!

For the discord 24+ is preferred, 18+ is a MUST.

Rush: A New Way to Learn Through Competitive Team-Based Challenges

Captivation in the learning industry is so crucial and yet can be so lacking in today’s society. Traditional education works, but as an 18 year old that is part of a new generation I have had a sense that education can be better. Now, you may think of me as a radical because education is perfectly fine for you, but for those of you that are in search of a better way to learn, I may have something for you, but first, I have a question. Are you a gamer like, competitive gamer? Because if so you probably know these two feelings. One, belonging and two, competition. I say belonging because in a lot of team based games there is rapport between consistent and successful teammates. I also say competition since it is a driver for engagement as it makes ranking up satisfying. The gaming aside, if we apply the psychology we learn from games to education it could be concluded that education will be more captivating with an increased sense of belonging and competition. It’s important to know that it isn’t the competition alone that make education captivating, but the incentives that drive competition, so that’s a third sub element to think about. Now what I’m offering is a free, captivating, and systematic way to learn through competing amongst one another in teams to reach a proficiency (measured by rank or how well you do in answering questions) that can allow you to use the skills you learn outside the system or compete in tournaments for money as long as we get investments and sponsors. Can you see how big this is? The pros in video games don’t get to take away their skills and apply it to other things, while this system is more practical while in theory being at a similar captivation level.

This system will start off through discord. There will be commands to see stats and ranks (/stats or /ranks). There will be a leaderboard and most importantly there will be an AI led discord bot that is the mediator for competition. The current subject we are focusing on is coding.

I would like to mention that I’m doing this because I want there to be a system like this out there for me and you guys that are interested, so if you're down to join the system is called Rush and we are launching on February 15, 2025, the discord link is below. Note, we are still going to be in development so be patient with the system and expect problems. You’ll be beta testers!

Looking for C++ buddies

Hello. I would like to find buddies to learn c++ with and eventually collaborate on a project together. I want to make one thing very clear: I'm not looking for an anime club or for positivity support enjoyers. What I'm trying to say is that I'm looking for serious people who will put efforts into learning and who can take some criticism and who are not afraid to give their opinions.

I have watched my fair share of anime. I am not anti-anime, I was just saying that as an example on how these kinda groups can degenerate. I want us to get actual results, not hope & encouragement. If you have no motivation to learn or no real intention to commit, don't bother.

Please send me a dm or write a comment so we can start this discord group/server.

Also, sorry if I sounded rude or anything.

Roadmap for learning coding.

There are so many diff things you can find on Youtube, but I'm quite skeptic at times bec not sure if it's just for clickbait or just an exaggeration or what. I want to see any recommendation from anyone here. If you were to teach a grandpa how to code, where would you start?

Looking for a Partner(s) to learn Python with the aim of creating a Portfolio

Hello!

A brief introduction. I go by Wulfen, currently in my last year of pursuing a bachelor's in Computer Science. Through my previous years at an online university I have learned that a degree is just not enough to get hired. You need some practical work to show potential employers what you are capable of, and I am looking to really get into the mindset of making a good portfolio for future employers.

I want to learn Python - and I consider myself intermediate at best, and I want to find a partner (or some partners) to learn together and build skills with. We will start with Python from the ground up if needed, and do some coding exercises together from websites like hackerrank, or codewars. We will exchange best practices, logic strategies, and support each other where one may be stuck.

As for the requirements, all I ask is that you see yourself learning at least for the immediate future (half a year or a year from now), have the dedication and willing to put the effort and at least an hour or a couple of hours a day. Timezone, age, and other things like that are really not important.

Ideally we would be around 2-10 people.

I am excited to learn together!

Looking for a Godot/Procedural Generation buddy

I'm trying to learn procedural generation, specifically I want to create islands, I'm struggling to learn and I want the islands to be flat because my game will be a top down game (click to move, kind of like Minecraft dungeons). It would be great to have someone to discuss this with or work on it together. I am a hobbyist and my time zone is EST/USA.

Thank you for reading and have a great day.

Looking for a Leetcode/HackerRank buddy (CET)

Before forcing you guys to read the description, I want to mention that I would prefer teaming up with people that are also in CET time zone or +-1 zone.

I recently started HackerRank since I was becoming rusty in DSA and problem solving.

I’m looking for someone who wants to spend an hour or two per day tackling some problems together, as well as motivating and helping each other out.

My plan is to stick to easy challenges until we can manage them with ease and then move up and repeat.

Anyone interested in learning Machine Learning together?

Hi. I'm interested in learning Machine Learning. If anyone is interested in studying together, we could eventually lead up to doing some projects along with theoretical learning. I've been learning sciences recently and i'm interested in how ML can be linked with them especially for research. I'm still a beginner in ML since i've been learning for about 2 months but want to learn ML and math related concepts more deeply soon.

Beginner Full Stack Web Developer Looking For A Study Buddy

Hello, I'm Michael. I've been learning Full Stack (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, and some soft skills courses) for about the past two months. I feel like I'm getting somewhere with it, however, It would be really great to find some people to collaborate with on a regular basis on these topics (rather than just plugging away with an instructor on a screen). Learning this is something that I have become passionate about. I see it being something that I build into a career. With that being said, if there is anyone out there who shares my enthusiasm then feel free to reach out. We can either message, voice, or video chat (either is fine with me) so long as we agree on making progress.
