Projects
Atomic
A full stack application made using Flask, React (TypeScript), MongoDB, and GCP. Uses NLP to create a schedule matching the inputted goals of a user. Goals and progress tracking can be shared as if it were a social media post with other users.
Cheat Sheet
Used Google’s ML library MediaPipe and OpenCV’s image processing algorithms to detect the motion of hands and the placement of drawn buttons on a piece of paper. Also implemented macro configurations and hotkey playback using a GUI automation module and local JSON storage.
