We are both juniors in high school, and although we are very STEM oriented students, we sometimes have trouble understanding math class
Abstract math is had enough; not having good teachers makes comprehending difficult topics near impossible
We spent hours trying to teach ourselves these subjects - even the most comprehensive study helpers, like Khan Academy or Youtube don't have everything we want
There are decent teachers online, but not enough practice problems are available to test our understanding
The few problems you might scrap together rarely, if ever, come with helpful solutions & guides
The App
The app we built, called 'Nex Gen Math' is meant to solve these problems
Our first section is a home or profile page that links to the most recommended lessons and practice
We plan to cover a broad range of mathematical topics
Our main attraction will be the many practice problems with walkthroughs and step-by-step solutions
Our simple, beautiful UI and UX add to the intuitiveness of using the app on a daily basis to learn and strengthen mathemtical skills
The integration with LaTeX is an aspect we are very proud of
Because everything will be free, we will appeal to any and all kinds of students
Built With
Flutter, made by Google for cross platform usability on Android and iOS devices
We wrote our backend with Firebase
All of the firebase code is located on branch "firebase"
Limitations & Struggles
This is both of our first major exposure to Flutter, so we were uncomfortable to begin with
Dart is almost based on Java, but there are enough synactical and logical differences to cause us to stumble about
integrating the backend api and modifying design elements were especially tricky
Also, because of time limitations, we could not fully write every lesson plan and come up with all kinds of problems
Obviously, math cannot be quantified to three or four generic topics, but we had to focus and hone in on a few areas for the sake of the project
For the Future
We will defintely include cross-language support so our audience can expand greatly
Obviously, we will be constantly adding new topics - we hope to maintain this app for a while
We can also look into running outreach campaigns targeted to schools to increase the use of our app in the daily lives of students
