Engineering Portfolio
A collection of high-performance utilities and apps developed entirely by me.
CIT Food Finder
Problem
Students waste time deciding where to eat and waiting in long campus queues.
Solution
Built an interactive platform to compare, filter, and analyze food options with a clean UI.
How it works
Uses Vanilla JavaScript to dynamically filter JSON data structures and update the DOM. State is managed locally to ensure zero server latency during category switching.
Future Work
Implementing Firebase for centralized queue updates and authenticated user reviews.
Result
Improved user experience based on real student feedback during campus testing.
Aadhavan IDE v8.1 Elite
Problem
Students lack a fast, multi-language compiler that works seamlessly directly in the browser.
Solution
Engineered a lightweight web IDE supporting C++, Python, Java, and Web technologies.
How it works
Integrates with secure remote execution APIs to compile and return standard output in real-time within a Monaco-style editor interface.
Future Work
Adding collaborative multiplayer coding and GitHub repo syncing.
Result
Zero-setup compilation saving minutes of dev environment configuration per session.
AKDEV Ultra Tools (25-in-1)
Problem
Developers constantly switch between multiple slow, ad-heavy websites for basic encoding, formatting, and regex testing.
Solution
Consolidated 25 essential developer tools into one rapid, offline-capable suite.
How it works
Utilizes client-side JavaScript for string manipulation, base64 encoding, and JSON parsing to ensure operations are instant and data never leaves the browser.
Future Work
Building a desktop PWA version with global shortcut keys.
Result
Streamlined developer workflow with zero external server dependencies.
Smart File Organizer
Problem
Media compression and conversion tools often require risky server uploads and are cluttered with ads.
Solution
Created a client-side utility to securely organize, compress, and manage images, video, audio, and documents.
How it works
Leverages the HTML5 Web API (FileReader, Blob, Canvas) to process, resize, and convert media entirely within the user's local memory.
Future Work
Implementing WebAssembly (WASM) for faster heavy video compression.
Result
100% privacy maintained with zero server uploads and instantaneous processing.
AKDEV AI Labs
Problem
Accessing modern AI engines requires multiple subscriptions and disjointed platforms.
Solution
Built an experimental AI server playground combining code helpers and text generation.
How it works
Interfaces with Groq/OpenAI APIs via asynchronous fetch requests, managing conversational context arrays in local storage for a seamless chat experience.
Future Work
Adding custom RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) for codebase-specific AI queries.
Result
Successfully integrated AI API endpoints for rapid, seamless prompt execution.
