[SWIFT] A story about a university student publishing a product on GitHub for self-appeal in the selection of laboratory assignments

Background

I'm a third year university student attending the information system department of the university! At the university / department I attend, I am assigned to a laboratory in the latter half of the third year (October to November).

In this laboratory assignment, each laboratory selects the assigned person from the applicants based on grades + interviews, etc. ** In the interview, self-appeal such as interest in research, programming ability, continuity, motivation for learning, etc. Will be asked. ** And what is important here is that ** you can also use the products listed on GitHub etc. for self-appeal **.

This time, in preparation for the selection of the laboratory assignment, I also published the past products on GitHub to use for self-appeal, and wrote an article thinking "If you want to publish it, I should write an article". It was.

Production

Qiita_for_iOS

This is a Qiita browsing app created for learning iOS development.

――You can browse / search articles, check LGTM / stock, and stock articles. -Use Qiita Public API --Since it was created as a catch-up for iOS13, it includes ʻUICollectionViewCompositionalLayoutandProperty Wrapper`.

--You can send messages, send images / files, add reaction, etc. --Use Firebase for backend

For developers under the second year of university

If you have a product, you can get a weapon that can be used for self-appeal **, so I think there is no loss in making it **, and cases where you can use that self-appeal, not limited to laboratory assignment selection I think there are many.

In my case, since the product is an iOS, React application, it is difficult to directly connect to the research content, but I think that it will still appeal ** programming ability, continuity, learning motivation, etc., and in recent years machine learning I think that it is also possible to appeal your interest and experience in research with ** products, because you can also develop fields that are relatively easy to relate to research, such as image processing and voice recognition. ** **

If you are in the second year of university or younger, you only need one, so it may be useful to assign to a laboratory if you make a product that can be made public to some extent! !!

Summary

(I heard from a senior at university) When interviewing for laboratory assignment selection, it seems that there are many students who only have oral self-appeal such as ** "I'm interested in XX." ** ** "I'm good at programming." . ** "I'm interested in XX. I made XX. The source code is posted on GitHub." ** ** "I'm good at programming. I made XX. Released to △△ There is. " It seems that if you appeal with evidence that it is a product, it will be highly credible and easy to be evaluated **. Of course, the grades so far are also evaluated, but it seems that there are rather few cases where everything is decided only by the grades (?). After all, I thought that ** the output of what I did was important **.

This time, when I searched for something that could be published in my past repository, there were two things that seemed to be possible for the time being, but taking this opportunity ** Let's send the product to Public more ** I think. I will do my best so that I can survive in the laboratory assignment selection! !! !!

I think that it is stronger if it has an objective evaluation, so if you think that the product is good, please star in the repository (low voice) (desire) (urgent)

bonus

I also created a profile on GitHub and tried to make it look like it!
