Hi! I’m currently concepting a webapp for college app writing management that’s designed to be genuinely user-friendly, and in particular supports many different “views” of the same information. Current WIP name is “the College App App” but seeking better suggestions.

For example, in a fully featured version, you could transition between viewing an individual supplemental essay, all of that college's essays (as they would be formatted in the Common App!), a table of all your essays for all your colleges (or those that aren't "done"), a comparison between the original essay and a similar essay you're submitting to a different college...and be able to edit the essay in all of those views, and have the database update. There would also be integration between the college list manager and the essay manager, and it would support activities lists in a convenient table view. It would also count words like the college apps do (which is different from Google Docs).

Anyway, I think the features will not be complicated technically, but I don’t have experience building web apps or database applications, and am eager to talk to people who do and who suggest good technologies to use. (Eg, some that I’ve heard thrown around include AirTable, Electron, React, SQL, etc).

I will pay up to M$2000 for suggestions, depending on quality/usefulness, but I will also say this: If you post any comment that implies you’ve read through the above spec and given it thoughtful consideration, I will provide at least M$100.
