I created this personal website to practice HTML and basic web development skills. The project taught me how to organize content into multiple pages and link resources such as resumes and external profiles. To do this, I used a variety of tools, but mainly tutorials on W3Schools.
I implemented common data structures such as linked lists, stacks, and queues in C++. Gained experience in writing efficient code, testing edge cases, and understanding how abstract structures work behind the scenes. A huge help during this practice were online forums such as GeeksforGeeks.
I built a basic client-server program in Python to understand how data is transferred between computers. Experimented with sockets and simple message passing to explore fundamental networking concepts. The biggest resource that helped me during this was also GeeksforGeeks.
In the future, I would like to explore a project that is based around making students' everyday lives easier. I want to focus on making a smart study planner that allows students to manage their time better around classes, labs, extracurriculars, and work. The planner would help create study guides and schedules for students, so they can use their time wisely and get all their work done in a timely manner. This project would allow me to explore algorithms, user interface design, and practical applications of software that directly benefit students.
