Developed an end-to-end AI Resume Generator that automatically rewrites, formats, and updates resumes in real time based on job descriptions. The platform is built with Next.js for the frontend, using Zustand for global state management and PostgreSQL for storing user profiles, templates, and resume data. The backend is powered by Django and a custom middleware layer that communicates with Ollama AI models to craft intelligent prompts, generate tailored resumes, detect formatting changes, and apply edits instantly. Implemented secure authentication and validation within Django, integrated MinIO for file storage, and added a JWT-based demo mode with rate-limited resume generation for unauthenticated users.
Technologies:

Developed a CMS for personal website and admin portal using Nuxtjs, Vue and Pinia for real time state management, allowing live preview of edits. Leveraged PostgreSQL for data validation and persistence. Implemented dynamic website templates (6 unique designs) using Vue, React, and Tailwind CSS, including real time color scheme customization and personalized themes for each user. Developed domain management, enabling subdomain creation and custom domain integration using API keys. Added flexible content controls for users to create custom sections, toggle visibility, and manage membership with Stripe subscriptions.
Technologies:

Developed a project management system used by 15+ active users to showcase their work with admin interface. Admin panel allows authenticated users to create and manage projects, enter details, assets, and external links. Implemented category and tag linking for each project to enable better grouping, filtering, and discoverability. Users can publish projects, which appear on their personalized domain URL that can be shared publicly. Created a community feature where users can set permissions on their projects and choose whether to share them publicly. It allows users to search, and explore portfolios of other users based on categories and tags.
Technologies:

Inspired by Email Builder from usewaypoint, I developed an interface to build, customize, and manage templates and versions. Supports simple blocks creation that can be styled and customized using a built in customization panel. Includes live preview for both mobile and desktop views and allows users to send test emails for testing. Implemented version control using MinIO, enabling users to save and modify previous versions of templates. Introduced a demo mode allowing unauthenticated users to explore features and build templates, with session data resetting every 15 minutes. Added an interactive guided tour that walks users through core features; it can be enabled or disabled anytime from the interface.
Technologies:

Developed a digital banking system simulating Monopoly’s financial transactions and property management. Enabled player account management, property buying/selling, rent payments, and fund tracking. Implemented real-time state management with Pinia for smooth gameplay experience. Designed scalable database schema in MySQL to track players, properties, and transactions. Created interactive UI for dynamic game updates and seamless user interactions.
