I fine-tuned a 4B open model to read my brother's study-group texts

Two projects were submitted for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge. SideQuest utilizes a 4B open model to coordinate study circles, allowing users to privately share budgets and accessibility needs to create inclusive plans. Meanwhile, InterviewBuddy serves as a patient mock interviewer for software engineering candidates. It provides structured feedback on behavioral, technical, and system design answers, overcoming the limitations of generic chatbots by acting as a rigorous practice partner that asks one question at a time.
