CypHype — Sociogram Analytics Platform
I developed CypHype, a sociogram analytics platform commissioned by the University of North Carolina at Pembroke to help residence hall administrators monitor and analyse the social dynamics among dormitory residents. The platform maps peer relationships, tracks romantic pairs, and logs roommate conflicts — giving staff a data-driven picture of the social network within their residential community. The frontend is built with Next.js 16, React 19, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS v4, using D3.js to render interactive sociogram network graphs. The backend is a NestJS 10 REST API backed by PostgreSQL via TypeORM, with dedicated modules for residents, relationship edges, romantic relationships, roommate conflicts, and JWT-secured authentication. Administrators can add resident profiles (with photo uploads), connect residents through relationship edges, report and track conflicts, log romantic relationships, and manage user accounts — all visible from a real-time dashboard showing aggregate counts and activity overviews.
