Projects

Matura Thesis

September, 2023

Binary Melodies: In this thesis, I used a Java dialect (Processing 4) to encrypt any text into an image.The goal was not to reinvent the wheel but to create an artistic form of encrypting text into an image. An actual way of decrypting the image back into text was not implemented in this project, but it leaves room for future development.

Grade 5.5/6.0

The Mandelbulb

January, 2024

In this project, my task was to realise the concept of the mushroom in the visual arts. As a result, I animated the Mandelbrot set in 3D and used it as a front end. With the help of live weather data (as a backend component), I made objects grow ‘organically’ like a mushroom. The project was essentioally a Flask application and used Three.js in the frontend.

Grade 6.0/6.0

Data Mining

November, 2024

In this project, I used Python to extract and analyze data from the internet. The project was based on the BeautifulSoup and requests libraries. The goal was to build a robust and reliable data mining tool capable of gathering information based on a given XPath. The final product was a locally hosted API, containerized with Docker, that returned data in JSON format and could later convert it to a CSV file.

Buillt Docs

November, 2024- Now

As of August 2024, I started offering websites as a service and wanted my own platform to collaborate with my clients and team. The goal is to create a more cost-effective alternative to the Microsoft Office cloud.

I have been working on a collaborative text editor, based on the Liveblocks library, with a Node.js backend and Auth0 for authentication. The aim is to develop a simple and user-friendly text editor that allows multiple users to work together in real time.

The project is still in development and is set to be released in July 2025. I am currently working on user authentication and backend development.
