Projects
Rawr Chat
Rawr Chat is a webchat built using PHP and MySQL. The design for the chatroom is inspired by Durarara!! I have been working on this since June 2012 as a hobby making updates whenever I can. I really liked the design of the chatroom from the show and wanted to make it a reality. There are similar chatrooms out there that have the same design, but I built this webchat with a focus on user customization. Users are currently able to select a custom color scheme for their chat bubble and avatar background. Custom avatars is something I would like to add in the future.
Detour App
Band tour planning software. This web application is targeted towards bands that are planning their tour. By telling Detour your start and destination location, it will plan out a route that has the most venues that you can perform at while also taking into account fuel costs and potential revenue gains from playing at certain venues. By utilizing the Eventful API, we are able to gather a list of venues you can play at along your planned route and beautifully display it using the Google Maps API. This project was made using the Laravel 5 framework with a MySQL database. Our team made this project for Hackpoly 2015.
AlarmUp
Smart alarm clock web application. This project was built using the Ruby on Rails framework and is powered by the IBM Watson API. Built for LAHacks 2015, our team envisioned this web application of replacing your old dumb alarm clock. Using the IBM Watson API, it would sift through your social networks and pull up the most interesting social news and read it off to you as well as pull any weather/local news.
KoClass
Built for HackingEDU 2015, this web application was developed as a platform for students and teachers to communicate about the class in real time. Teachers can add students to classrooms and manage them from there, when class is in sessions, students will have the ability to give live feedback on how the course is being taught and ask any questions they have available. Use cases can be geared towards online-only classes or in person classes. It is built using the Laravel 5 framework powered by the Moxtra API.
Mosaifai
Made for Hackpoly 2016, Mosaifai is a mosaic generator. By providing a source image, it will find images of objects that are in the source image and create a mosaic of the original image using images that it finds across the internet. Built using PHP for the backend web service, Clarifai for image recognition, and Flickr for pooling images. Backend processing is handled by Sidekiq with ImageMagick for converting image sizes.
