I have been building web apps and tools for about 10yrs. Some of my works are critical parts of systems that manage billions of dollars at Alteryx, Trifactaacquired by Alteryx, PlateIQ and Boomerang Commerce*business division acquired by Lowe's.
I have also built a bunch of tools for my daily use and have occasional contributions to opensource projects. I keep myself busy with a lot of video games and a bit each of travel, bike rides and runs.
I built my own Air Quality Monitor to understand the environment around me.
Any commercially available monitor did not seem reliable and did not have a way for me to record and own the data.
Building the whole stack I could understand a lot about air quality and sensors and costs involved in making a reliable monitor.
I made a fuel price visualizer to see how bad the fuel is priced in your place compared to entire of India.
You can rest in peace knowing someone else is paying more than you. Except if you live in Rajasthan or Madhya Pradesh.
Data is collected from IOCL for every indian oil location and mapped out using WebGL
One of the projects I have contibuted to was used by NASA to send a helicopter to mars.
I made a tiny utility app for android that let Pebble smartwatch users like myself integrate Strava activity tracking on our smartwatches.
Though it had a very small set of users, it was very much loved.
hot-reload is a tiny nodejs utility to help develop tiny webpages. Once installed it can be used to serve static resource from a project directory and it takes care of reloading the browser when any project files are changed.
Under the hood it uses WebSocket and express and is hosted on Github
Zoot is a 3d render of my alma mater IITH's housing complex. It is based on WebGL and has contribution from other IITH alumni for the various 3d models.
Since the time this was made, the institute and the hostels have moved to a new permanent address. Zoot remains the only way you can visit the old times.
