Looking for 4 people to build something weird with me

A developer is recruiting four collaborators to build an immersive simulation for the IEEE Metaverse Grand Challenge on Simulation-Based Learning. The project, with an August 15 deadline, aims to create an interactive environment—such as a public safety, smart city, or healthcare training simulation—rather than a chatbot or standard app. The developer is seeking curious team members, prioritizing enthusiasm over experience, to explore how technology can teach through experiential learning.

A few months ago, if someone had asked me what I'd be doing this summer, I would've probably said DSA.

104 LeetCode problems later, I somehow ended up obsessed with AI, simulations, product design, human behavior, and all the strange ways technology can teach people things.

Recently I came across the IEEE Metaverse Grand Challenge for Simulation-Based Learning.

The premise is simple:

Build an immersive simulation that teaches something.

Not another chatbot.

Not another CRUD app.

Not another dashboard pretending to be a startup.

A simulation.

Something people can step into, interact with, and learn from.

I don't know exactly what we're building yet.

Maybe a public safety simulation.

Maybe a smart city that reacts to your decisions.

Maybe a healthcare training environment.

Maybe something completely different.

What I do know is that I don't want to do it alone.

So I'm looking for 4 people who want to spend the next few months building something ambitious.

Current stack on my side:

People I'd love to meet:

Experience matters less than curiosity.

The deadline is August 15.

If we end up building something cool, great.

If we end up learning a ridiculous amount and making new friends, that's probably a win too.

If this sounds interesting, reach out.

Let's build something weird.
