Recent Projects
Here is a showcase of stuff I've recently made!
This Portflio Website!
- A portfolio website and blog hosted on AWS using S3, cloudfront, and AWS Lambda.
- Built and designed using Typescript, Astrojs, tailwindcss, and deployed using sst.
- Fast and SEO friendly with Open Graph tags and sitemap for page indexing.
- Google analytics as a default (say Hi to Google! They know you're here).
BitMasker -- A humourous murder-as-a-service joke site!
- **Not an actual hitman service**!
- Beautifully designed modern UI and SaaS-style landing page.
- A website made also using Astro and hosted on AWS.
- Fast and SEO friendly with Open Graph tags and sitemap for page indexing.
SCRAMBLED Web Game
- Web based word game build using React, Material UI, and Typescript.
- The game will generate 7 random letters and the goal is to find a 7 letter annagram (There can be multiple solutions!).
- Inclusion of blank tiles (where you can select any letter) makes this project algorithmically interesting!
- Includes settings to change difficulty, and word bank.
Let's create together
