Campus Connect
Built a student engagement platform for campus event management, resource sharing, and automated notifications.
Overview
Developed a full-stack campus platform that centralizes event management, student registrations, academic resource sharing, and campus communication. The system enables students to discover and register for events, access shared learning resources, and receive automated updates through asynchronous notification workflows. Built with cloud-native infrastructure using AWS services, the platform leverages S3 and CloudFront for scalable content delivery while GitHub Actions automates deployment through a CI/CD pipeline.
Key Features
- 1Built complete event lifecycle management including event creation, registration, and attendee tracking
- 2Developed academic resource sharing portal supporting notes, study materials, and media uploads
- 3Integrated AWS S3 and CloudFront for scalable file storage and low-latency content delivery
- 4Implemented asynchronous notification workflows using AWS SQS and email services
- 5Created role-based administration features for event organizers and platform moderators
- 6Added search and filtering capabilities for discovering events and academic resources
- 7Automated deployment workflows using GitHub Actions CI/CD pipelines
The Engineering Challenge
Designing a scalable notification system that could process event registrations and updates without impacting user-facing response times. This was solved by introducing asynchronous messaging through AWS SQS, allowing email notifications and background processing tasks to execute independently from the core application workflow. Another challenge was efficiently serving uploaded media and resources, which was addressed using AWS S3 for storage and CloudFront for global content delivery.
