About

Tbh it is super weird to talk about yourself, but below is a mere try.
I'm a final year CS undergraduate (2019-2023) at IIIT Kalyani. Here are a few things I am/have been involved with:

I also do freelance technical writing and content creation for tech companies and startups. You can check out my work in the articles tab. As my interest in developer advocacy, I am excited to bring my passion for technology and my communication skills to the role of building relationships between developers and a company. Open to considering opportunities in this space.

Will be happy to collaborate/work on anything not limited, but related to any of the above. Will be more than happy to connect and network :)

Projects

Most recent first, these aren't on my resume:

  • Flockbot for Oncalls

    Made for Techathon at 1mg. The bot listens to commands and pulls up data and contact of the on-call developers for that sprint to display on the flock channel.

  • Project Scheduler in Python

    Made for a semester project submission for the subject "Software Engineering". Takes in your input files with tasks' details and outputs a file with task specs like duration, float etc. Contains basic unit tests as well.

  • Virtual Pilgrim Experience

    Made for Smart India Hackathon submission, this is a Flutter app, using Firebase for BaaS, that gives users virtual experience of pilgrimage sites. Includes immersive 360 degree views of the sites, allows donations to the pligrimages. (repo is pvt for now, added link in case would want to make it pulic someday)

  • DCEL

    College assignment. Doubly Connected Edge List to read .ply files in Python

  • Handwritten Code Scanner

    Made for a Hackathon. Write code on paper (in any language), scan it using the Flutter app, provide inputs and get the output of your handwritten code.

  • LR-1 Parser in Python

    Made for a semester project submission for the subject "Compiler Design". Takes a grammar's production rules and creates a LR(1) parsing table, then finally parses the grammar to "accept" or "reject".

  • Samvaad Bot

    Made for a hackathon. A Google meet bot that joins the meeting by invitation. Bot acts a realtime Bilingual Translator to convey messages to each side almost instantly.

  • Inclusivity App

    Made for a Hackathon. A chrome extension for women + non-binary => that suggests you a stronger, and much more confident lingo that makes you aware of how subconsciously you're trying to undermine yourself through your words, for men => that suggests you a softer, much more inclusive lingo, so you do not offend any community member.

  • Retinopathy

    Not a project exactly but made while I was learning Deep Learning. This is a Categorical Detection and Prediction Task based on subset of a Kaggle dataset from Eye Images APTOS 2019 Challenge. Predicts the Blindness Stage (0-4) class from the Eye retina Image using transfer learning via resnet50.
