SkillMesh: A peer-to-peer platform for collaborative skill exchange

In the digital age, skill acquisition is increasingly reliant on pre-recorded courses and generalized lectures available on platforms such as YouTube and Coursera. While these methods have become the norm, they often fail to meet the personalized learning needs of individuals. This paper introduces SkillMesh, an innovative application designed to transform how people acquire knowledge by facilitating direct connections be- tween learners and mentors. The platform offers personalized courses tailored to individual learning goals. By leveraging advanced algorithms, SkillMesh ensures a dynamic, interactive learning experience that fosters continuous skill development. This innovative approach not only enhances learning effectiveness but also builds a supportive community dedicated to personal and professional growth. Our research highlights SkillMesh’s potential to transform the educational landscape by providing a scalable and adaptable solution for personalized learning in the digital era.
