In my previous blog post, I shared two exciting projects, Optimism and the Yemen Project, aimed at revolutionizing student engagement and fostering collaboration within the KNUST ecosystem. As we embark on this journey of technological transformation and community building, I want to emphasize the importance of your feedback and cooperation. This follow-up blog post will highlight the backend development of our market space and the role you play in shaping its user experience (UX) and user interface (UI).
Backend Development#️⃣|Raw and open for ideas🙂: At this early stage of development, the backend of our market space is intentionally designed to be raw and unappealing. Why, you may ask? We want to provide you with hands-on experience and an opportunity to actively participate in tailoring the website to your needs. By keeping it simple and unpolished, we encourage you to explore, experiment, and provide valuable feedback that will guide the refinement of the platform.Continuous Student Engagement🏁: Your engagement is vital to the success of this market space. We value your input on every aspect, from functionality to design. To facilitate seamless communication, we have incorporated a light blue chat icon at the bottom right corner of the website. Click on it to send your suggestions, comments, and any issues you encounter. Your feedback will be instrumental in improving the marketspace and making it more user-friendly.Calling Student Entrepreneurs💼: We invite all student entrepreneurs to actively participate by releasing their contact information to be displayed on the platform. This will enable potential customers and collaborators to reach out to you directly. By showcasing your products and services, you contribute to the vibrancy and success of the marketspace. Together, we can create an ecosystem that supports student entrepreneurship and showcases the talent within our community.KNUST | Leading the Way🦅: It's important to acknowledge that KNUST stands at the forefront of innovation and development. Is the best university in the country, and one of the best in the world as it stands now. We have the opportunity to set new standards and create a lasting impact. This market space, built under the Yemen Project, is a testament to our commitment to empowering students and driving positive change.A Long-lasting Venture🎉: The market space is not a short-term endeavour. It is designed to serve the student population for years to come, becoming a central hub for all their needs. Your involvement from the early stages will shape its growth and ensure its sustainability. Together, we will build a marketspace that truly reflects the aspirations and interests of the KNUST ecosystem.
In conclusion, your input is crucial in refining the marketspace and making it a valuable resource for the entire KNUST community. As a first-year computer engineering student, I believe that collaboration is the key to development. Your active participation will shape the UX, UI, and overall success of the platform. Remember, by clicking on the chat icon and sharing your feedback, you contribute to a future where KNUST leads in innovation and entrepreneurship.
