getHome(interhyp) is an advanced, gamified life simulation platform designed to educate young adults on long-term financial planning and home ownership goals.
The core idea is to turn complex financial decisions—like saving rates, investments, and career changes—into an engaging role-playing experience. Users navigate simulated years, facing life events (powered by Google Gemini), and track their progress toward the ultimate goal: financing their dream home.
The simulation accurately models key dynamics:
- Investment Growth: Stochastic models predict portfolio returns (ETF, Crypto, Cash).
- Life Satisfaction: A psychometric function measures happiness based on income, stress, living space, and social factors.
- Credit Worthiness: The system continuously calculates the maximum affordable loan amount based on current finances.
- Frontend/Backend: Next.js & TypeScript
- AI: Google Gemini API (Event Generation, Financial Analysis)
- Infrastructure: Docker / Google Cloud Run
