This is a submission for the GitHub Finish-Up-A-Thon Challenge
What I Built
ver the years, I have been interested in many different things and have tried myself in various fields: sports such as tennis and swimming, acting, dancing, painting, astronomy, and many others. However, when it came to choosing a profession, I didn't know what I wanted to do.
I didn't have the money to consult a career counselor, and the existing quizzes I tried felt too generic. As a result, I chose a field that my parents encouraged me to pursue, but to this day, I still doubt that decision.
This led me to investigate the topic further, and I discovered that many people face the same problem. Based on the research I have been reading, I started building a project that could help solve it in three simple steps.
First, users chat with a bot. After analyzing their answers, it suggests professions that might suit them and creates a personalized roadmap to help them achieve their goals. This includes guidance on getting into a specific university, relocating to another country if needed, and securing their first internships.
Next, there is a simulation game that recreates what it is like to work in the profession they have chosen. (Generates specific environment tailored to their choice. e.g day as a policeman, firefighter, dentist, etc) This allows users to better understand whether it is something they truly want to pursue before committing to it.
Real-time simulator game wasn't created for now, but is under development.
This is the first version of the app, so it will be edited and polished hundred times in future.

The Comeback Story
As I was busy adapting to university life and a new country, I couldn't devote much time to the project. However, after participating in a short hackathon, I decided to return to it and continue its development.
My Experience with GitHub Copilot
I have some experience using GitHub Copilot and have occasionally followed its suggestions, but I cannot say that I know all of its commands or capabilities.
