TigerTrove is a time capsule app for Princeton students to capture, reflect on, and relive their college experiences through bi-weekly memory capsules and end-of-semester reveals.

This project was completed alongside Arianna Haider, Adeeba Hasin, & Daniel Liu as work for the Princeton course Advanced Programming Techniques led by Robert Dondero. Special thanks to our project advisor, Jipeng Sun, for his outstanding guidance and support.

System Highlights:

Time Capsules Tailored for Tigers

– Designed exclusively for Princeton students to preserve college moments with intention.

– Prompts evolve with the semester, and users always have the change to upload custom memories, helping you capture both milestones and everyday joys.

Your Story, One Drop at a Time

– Submit memories every two weeks through rotating “chests” with guided reflections.

– Sneak peeks offer glimpses before the grand reveal at semester’s end.

Simple to Start. Built to Last.

– Modular architecture supports multimedia entries, feedback, and future sharing.

– Hosted on Heroku with PostgreSQL and Cloudinary for scalable, secure storage.
