Solve It!

Where problems meet people who solve them. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Over the past few months, I was at an entrepreneurship camp, and we often had to find a problem to solve. That’s because one of the most important aspects of entrepreneurship is creating products that offer solutions to the problems people face in their daily lives. The biggest problem we faced, ironically, was that we couldn’t find a problem to solve! And on the one hand, there are already many people facing problems, and they, too, are looking for solutions to their problems. We kept asking people about the issues they were facing, and I thought to myself, Why not do something about this? Solve It is a platform where people facing problems can share their issues and what they want resolved, while those eager to come up with solutions can share their ideas.

Ship #1

Solve It is a platform that connects individuals facing daily life problems with entrepreneurs and developers who want to build solutions, all under one roof. By organizing issues by category and urgency level, it simplifies tracking, enables step-by-step solution guides, and allows clear monitoring of the resolution process.

I came up with the idea for this site during an entrepreneurship camp where we were asked to find problems to solve, but our biggest problem turned out to be not being able to think of any problem to solve! I spent over 10 hours working on it, and bringing this site to life with all the features I had in mind makes me really proud. I still have many more features planned, and you can find detailed information in my README. Feel free to create an account and explore the site! If you’re experiencing a problem, post it on Solve It and watch it get resolved! I would love to hear your feedback.

Hii again, I just can’t seem to finish my project :D I realized there’s one more feature that needs to be included in the MVP; users experiencing the same issue should be able to vote on it, and the tickets with the most votes should appear at the top when filtered. I added this feature and tweaked the look of the filter buttons (it looks much better this way) and I think it’s finally ready!

I was actually planning to finish the project, but at the last minute, I decided I needed to make this addition:D We can now view user profiles, review the issues they’ve posted and the solutions they’ve provided all in one place!

after an hour, I finished my logo design (using Canva, I actually saved it on my laptop, but I can’t transfer it) and placed it in the appropriate places on my site. I also added a favicon, it was visible at first, but it disappeared when I changed the image. I think it’s a caching issue:( I expect it will be fixed once I clear the local cache. I think my project is done! Next up is writing the readme!!

Hii, I’m here to share the updates I’ve made to my site since my last devlog.

First, I added a new filter to the system called “URGENT.” Users can check this box when their issues are truly urgent, allowing them to get a solution more quickly. I added a small icon in the top-left corner of cards marked as urgent to indicate this; the urgent filter flashes to draw attention, and the filter system is working smoothly.

Next, users can now attach images both when creating an issue and when submitting solutions. This will help them describe their situations more easily. Additionally, users can now attach their readme files to their comments.

I also worked on optimizing the use of localhost and local storage resources during the MVP phase. Uploaded media files are compressed on the client side using HTML5 Canvas and converted to Base64 format; I added file size limits and created a lightweight preview mechanism that keeps memory usage to a minimum.

Then, I also made improvements to the interface and styling. The pop-up boxes that appear when viewing issue details etc. looked too cluttered to me, so I adjusted the fonts and made the boxes wider.

Now, the MVP of my project is almost complete, I’ll make a few minor tweaks and get it ready for release. Thank you for reading this far!

Hi everyonee, here are the features I’ve added to the site over the past two days:

1. Notification System

I set up a notification system so users can stay updated on comments, replies, and solutions to their own issues (in short, anything related to them)

2. “My Projects” Module

I added a module where users can view the issues they’re working on.

3. Solution Mechanism

I’ve set up a system for providing solutions to problems, creating README files, viewing solutions, and managing the problem-solution workflow. As I mentioned earlier, solutions can be tracked from the my projects page.

4. Deletion and Content Management Permissions

Users now have control over the content they create on the platform (the person who created a comment, solution, or issue can delete it)

5. Solution Approval System

If the person who posted the issue also approves the submitted solution, the ticket is moved to a separate page—the “Resolved Issues” page. This page can be accessed from the categories section. (visually, I’m thinking of making the tickets on this page look like they’re cut off or truncated. What do you think?)

Yeah, I didn’t get much work done today, but at least for now I’ve set up a login and registration system that works, organized the categories, and added a search bar. This is what it looks like right now. (let’s see how it goes :D)

Last month, I attended a camp where we took classes on entrepreneurship and we were often asked to identify a problem and come up with a solution. We were all eager to find solutions, but our problem was that we couldn’t find any problems! We spent most of the time allotted to us trying to identify problems, it felt like we’d run out of problems to work on. We asked people about the problems they were facing, the things they wished existed. That’s when an idea came to me, why not create a platform that brings together people with problems and those who can find solutions for them? I’m now taking the first steps to bring this idea to life; thinking about what kind of theme it could be, how it might look good, and how to make it functional. (I thought the ticket theme would be aesthetically pleasing, any suggestions?) I’ve started working on a rough draft, but there will be sooo many changes to come! If you think you need a site like this, stay tuned.
