Abstract
This project proposes the development of CodeZip, a university-exclusive web platform designed to help University of Akron students practice coding problems, prepare for technical interviews, and engage in collaborative learning. CodeZip ensures a secure environment by restricting access to users with @uakron.edu email addresses via Clerk API authentication.
The goal of this honors project is to expand CodeZip into an intelligent, interactive system. Planned enhancements include AI-generated problem hints, automated grading with performance analytics, and a visual dashboard to track learning progress. These features will provide personalized guidance, encourage collaboration between students and alumni, and create a dynamic platform that strengthens the University of Akron’s computing community
