The current software engineering industry is booming and young people interested in getting in have to navigate a challenging and complex learning curve to acquire sufficient expertise to be hireable in the industry. We aim to ease the process of developing and engineering software while maintaining the roles and utilities of key professionals.

Furthermore, (key) professionals involved in the software engineering industry have to contend with uneven tooling complexities. UI/UX designers can easily create complex wireframes but programmers often have a hard time implementing these designs in the actual software. Our platform aims to achieve optimal separation of concerns between professionals such that designers are not limited by the capabilities of programmers.

These are issues affecting young and experienced professionals affecting the software engineering space.

On our web platform, UI/UX designers can build complex wireframes easily and intuitively and developers can then come into the same platform and breathe life into the software application with (Python) code so that developers do not have to rewrite code to achieve the UI/UX designs. At any point in time, the production-ready application files can be built and exported for testing and deployment on most platforms : android, iOS, web, and desktop.

The platform is being built in such a way that it feels intuitive to both professional and amateur UI/UX designers to optimize the adoption rate and learning curve. Developers would also be writing code on the platform in Python without any boilerplates to ease and reduce the complexity of the learning process.

The solution would serve all across the globe who are interested in building software solutions to environmental problems. 

It will not enable novice users to boycott the services of key professionals in the software industry since this often backfires and people who startout building without the services of professionals often end up seeking such services because of the eventual complexity of their desired software applications.

This solution will enable UI/UX designers and software developers at any skill level to optimize their marketability, productivity, and collaboration.

I, the CEO, have close to 8 years of experience building software applications for android, iOS, web, and desktop platforms. I have catered to several clients from across the globe. I have led multidisciplinary teams on software development projects. I have also used a variety of tech stacks and I'm confident in my understanding of the nuances between software development tools and how they affect project requirements.

The core technology powering the key services of the platform has been hacked and tested. Right now, it is being developed to cater to the tooling requirements of the intended users.

We intend for this project to have a global impact such that it becomes ubiquitous in the software development space. The intent is to leverage the accolades of MIT solve for publicity so that future users can see this platform as the solution that it is and not just a money-making venture.

When I have sufficient resources to cater to other employees, I intend to open employment opportunities to qualified candidates from across the globe since I myself have benefited from such programmes. 

The web platform is intended to become ubiquitous in the software development space and most of the usage (software designing and developing) will be free but users would pay to get deployable application files.

Most profitable tech companies such as Figma, Canva, and OpenAI started out offering free services and only started to charge users when traction went out of hand. Furthermore, their core services are still free. 

The successes of these companies' models give sufficient enough evidence to justify the chosen business model.
