hey all im vivaan and im trying to make an app for the first time on glide. need few tips. in india if u want colleges, there is a process called “cap” or centralised admission process. the first step to this process is to make a list of colleges and branches in that college in a preference wise list. once all students submit that, the data of students is arranged merit wise and then according to their priority choice and availability of seats, the college seats are allotted. however, I’m working on a diff smaller use case. i want to create a Preference List Builder where the user can add colleges/branches to wishlist, Sort them manually by drag & drop, See predicted cutoff for each, Lock preference list & export as PDF. also, I want to add an aspect of preference based on field of interest, marks and/or rank obtained, location (nearest college).
Going through your app features:
- Adding colleges/branches to a wishlist:
Should be possible, it can just be a native form to do this for signed-in users.
- Manual sorting via drag & drop
Not possible natively, but perhaps you can use the AI component here and store the sorting result as a JSON, with a sort index for each element.
- Displaying predicted cutoffs for each option
I assume you input this as a user or an admin? Then yes.
- Locking the preference list and exporting it as a PDF
You can build a template using DocsAutomator or PDFMonkey and generate it.
- Factoring in preferences based on field of interest, marks/rank, and location (nearest college).
Where does this come into play in your user journey?
