Hey, everyone I made a website that lets you find study partners/groups based on the specific course/book you are studying. It's 100% free + no registration required. Why: I know there are many subreddits for finding study partners. But, one of the biggest reasons we can't find the right partner/group is lack of clarity. Most posts that I read on Reddit were something like: "I'm interested in programming. Let's study Python together..." - That's not a clear goal. But, when you say "Let's study the Python for Everybody course on Coursera . I'm from Mumbai, India, and I'm looking for study partners in the* timezone (UTC+5:30). I'm fluent in Hindi language. I have 2 years of experience in C++ , so I understand the fundamentals of programming. Happy to host the group and contribute " - that will lead to higher quality engagement. It's also difficult to search + filter posts on Reddit, based on my learning requirements. Keeping all these pain points in mind, I've built Moocable, where you can search & filter posts based on the course/book you're learning + timezones + languages + level of experience. Lastly, you can use it to discover new learning materials. Some of you might have used https://ift.tt/a7M6VfX I'm building a similar library for Moocable, you can easily search and discover new learning materials. If you are looking for study partners, give it a try! P.S.: I've manually filled the first ~100 posts. Each post is 100% authentic, scraped from subreddits/Coursera forums/niche websites.
