I built a website that helps you find people studying the same online course/book

Hey, everyone
I made a website that lets you find study partners/groups based on the specific course/book you are studying.

Website: Moocable

It's 100% free + no registration required.

Why: I know there are many subreddits for finding study partners. But, one of the biggest reasons we can't find the right partner/group is lack of clarity.

Most posts that I read on Reddit were something like: "I'm interested in programming. Let's study Python together..." - That's not a clear goal.

But, when you say "Let's study the Python for Everybody course on Coursera. I'm from Mumbai, India, and I'm looking for study partners in the timezone (UTC+5:30). I'm fluent in Hindi language. I have 2 years of experience in C++, so I understand the fundamentals of programming. Happy to host the group and contribute" - that will lead to higher quality engagement.

It's also difficult to search + filter posts on Reddit, based on my learning requirements.

Keeping all these pain points in mind, I've built Moocable, where you can search & filter posts based on the course/book you're learning + timezones + languages + level of experience.

Lastly, you can use it to discover new learning materials. Some of you might have used https://www.classcentral.com/

I'm building a similar library for Moocable, you can easily search and discover new learning materials.

If you are looking for study partners, give it a try!

P.S.: I've manually filled the first ~100 posts. Each post is 100% authentic, scraped from subreddits/Coursera forums/niche websites.
