Camp Cabin Group Maker

Example: A school coordinator is assigning 32 people to 9 camp cabins — 16 boys and 12 girls into 7 student cabins of 4, plus 2 male teachers into their own cabin and 2 female teachers into theirs. Each student has named two cabin-mates they'd like to share with — the algorithm fills all 9 cabins in one pass while matching as many preferences as possible.

We've pre-loaded all 32 people — hit the Generate Groups button (bottom right) to try it. In the dialog, add 4 group entries using the category feature: 4 groups of 4 (all Boy) for student boys' cabins, 1 group of 2 (all Male Staff) for the male teachers' cabin, 3 groups of 4 (all Girl) for student girls' cabins, then 1 group of 2 (all Female Staff) for the female teachers' cabin.

This example shows how Clever Groups handles a full overnight camp assignment in one pass — student preferences are matched across the whole year level, gender separation is enforced by category constraints, and staff cabins are allocated simultaneously without separate manual steps.
