Formuler was a proposal for a social network centered on asking, explaining, and discussing mathematics. The system combined an Android client with a LAMP backend implemented in PHP and MySQL.
Motivation
While preparing for university entrance examinations, I realized that mathematics requires more than memorized knowledge: it also demands the ability to interpret a problem and decide how to approach it. I was particularly struggling with geometry and wanted to build something useful for everyday study.
This led me to propose a social network where students could share mathematical questions, explanations, and ways of thinking. By using a familiar client-server architecture, I connected that learning problem with technologies I was already able to implement.
Outcome
The project received an Honorable Mention in the Programming Division of the Saitama Technical High School Programming Contest.
