Building HTUAI: A Real-Time GPA Tracker for Students
By Omar Mubaidin
The Challenge
Students needed a quick, private way to calculate their GPA and track their academic progress without logging into slow, clunky university portals.
The Solution
I engineered HTUAI as a client-side calculator using Next.js and React. By leveraging local storage for data persistence, the tool guarantees 100% privacy—no backend required.
The Outcome
The result is a seamless, lightning-fast application with a premium UI driven by Framer Motion. It instantly provides academic insights to students, acting as the perfect integrated tool for their daily workflow.
