Tinder++ | Devpost

On late and caffeine-drive nights (aka almost every night), thousands of hackers are sitting at their desks coding. Thousands of lonely souls looking for the right debugging partner. Someone who will know that tabs should always be used instead of spaces. Someone that knows that Vim is clearly superior to Emacs (#flamewars). Someone that pushes all the right buttons. Tinder++, the next iteration of hookups but for hackers. Log in, say “hello world”, and find the 1.

What it does

Based on your responses to a truly encompassing series of questions that polarize the hackathon community and a fast implementation of the GS Stable Matching algorithm, we try to find the ideal pairings, such that your debugging experience will be one you never forget. We make sure to match you with a partner such that you won’t waste anytime on the the small things like Mac vs. Windows and have time to truly focus on each other…...s code.
