--- title: "SeatSaver" kind: student-project location: "Holy Angel University" tags: [students, student-work, apsi] summary: "Reserve a seat at HAU student-org events, with a real headcount for the organizers." --- *A final project from Full-stack JavaScript, 2026 first semester. Part of [Fifteen full-stack apps from a semester I almost did not survive](/calendar/2026-s1-apsi-students).*
SeatSaver, the project's square image
## What it is An officer posts an event with a fixed number of seats, students request one with their school email, and the officer approves or rejects from a queue, so organizers know the real headcount before the day instead of reconciling a Google Form with a Messenger thread. Built with React, Express and PostgreSQL. ## Why it is here Every org on campus has this exact problem, and the README names it better than I could. It opens straight onto a live event board, and its write-up of how Claude Code helped and where it got things wrong is honest in a way I want every student to copy. ## Find it - Project: [github.com/TrstnSnhn/Seatsaver](https://github.com/TrstnSnhn/Seatsaver) - Live: [trstnsnhn.github.io/Seatsaver](https://trstnsnhn.github.io/Seatsaver/) - GitHub: [@TrstnSnhn](https://github.com/TrstnSnhn) - LinkedIn: [profile](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tristansinohin/) ## Screenshots
