This is a clone of the NYT Connections Game. Which itself seems to be an unacknowledged clone of the British game Only Connect. The project uses React's Context API to manage global state about the game. The project also uses primitive components from shadcn/ui library.

On an MBA blog, an admissions consultant goes through user-submitted profiles and gives them his expert opinion on their chances of getting into particular MBA programs. As a prospective MBA applicant, you're likely really just interested in reading about the profile that is a closest match to your own- but, it's unlikely that someone has the exact same stats and background, so you settle for the closest approximation. The issue is that there are hundreds of these profiles and they're spread across over 60 distinct articles. I scraped the data from the website blog posts, normalized it to be used as training data for a machine learning model, deployed the model behind a serverless API on AWS, set up a simple form on my website to allow people to interact with the API.
