BuddyUp

Description

A game match-making web application built on React, Redux, PostgreSQL, Express, Socket.io and Node.js. Meant as a better automatch-making system than an online game's default matching system, this web app uses a Tinder-style approach in pairing up players based on their desired skill-level of their match.
