SkillSwap Platform
Develop a SaaS platform that allows users to exchange skills through remote training sessions. Users can sign up to either offer training in a skill they are proficient in or learn a new skill from others. The system uses a credit-based mechanism where users earn credits by offering training and spend them to learn. This peer-to-peer skill exchange can attract freelancers, gig workers, and hobbyists looking to broaden their capabilities.
