Started my open source journey in early 2020 and I am so proud that I have completed GSoC 2020 with OpenSCAD. OpenSCAD has one of the awesomest and intelligent community of software developers. It was my best experience as a developer to contribute to such a legacy software written in C++, which evolved me as a developer.

During the GSoC, I enhanced the text editor of OpenSCAD by improving error reporting, jump directly to errors, and other UX improvements. I also introduced a Custom Shortcut Configurator component to allow users to set shortcuts for different actions through a config file or UI.

With an inquisitiveness to learn more in web3.0 space with a scarcity of learning resources, I decided to hunt for research internships in the blockchain space. As a result, I landed an opportunity to work as a Summer Research Assistant in the CSE Department, IIT Kharagpur under the guidance of Dr. Sandip Chakraborty. Dr. Sandip is well known for his NPTEL course on Blockchain.

During this period, I helped in architecting a permissioned blockchain network to establish a Decentralised Cloud Federation using Hyperledger Fabric. I wrote the smart contracts and the client application used for testing.
