About Me
I'm Sourjya Sarkar, a lifelong enthusiast of computer science and software engineering. I've been
fiddling with computers since the age of 5, and my definitive objective is to turn into a vital figure
in this consistently developing field. I'm currently based in Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
Portfolio
PixPlet
PixPlet is a user-friendly CSS design system aimed at making website and web app design faster
and more efficient. It utilizes Sass for core styling, JavaScript for interactivity, and
ultimately compiles everything into CSS. PixPlet's goal is to simplify the design process while
offering
flexibility for future enhancements. The project is still under development.
WalkingStick
WalkingStick is a project developed by me as a final project for CS50x, serving as both a Chrome
extension and a standalone web app. Its primary aim is to enhance internet accessibility for
individuals with disabilities by offering various functionalities. Users can install the Chrome
extension to redirect their new tab page to the WalkingStick web app and enable text-to-speech
functionality by simply pressing a key. The web app, powered by Flask, recognizes voice commands
and
can provide definitions, news articles, or even play music from YouTube based on user input.
This
innovative solution combines simplicity and efficiency to improve internet navigation for a
broader
audience.
Amazing things happening in the backstage - stay tuned!
