Projects

pasteCTL
- Full-stack code sharing platform with monorepo architecture supporting real-time collaborative editing via WebSocket, achieving 56% test coverage with comprehensive integration testing.
- RESTful API server in Go using Gin framework with PostgreSQL for data persistence, implementing efficient CRUD operations and real-time update propagation across concurrent sessions.
- Deployed scalable infrastructure on AWS with backend on EC2 (t3.micro) and frontend on Vercel, configuring CI/CD pipelines for automated deployments with zero-downtime releases.
- Companion CLI tool in Go with Cobra framework for terminal-based paste management and automation, implementing syntax highlighting for 10+ languages with configurable expiration and raw API endpoints.

rate-limiter-go
- Production-ready rate limiting library achieving ~15M operations/second on single-core benchmarks, with 60-70ns/op latency under concurrent workloads and 93% test coverage across all modules.
- Implemented 3 algorithms (Token Bucket, Sliding Window Counter, Leaky Bucket) with pluggable storage backends supporting both in-memory and distributed Redis architectures.
- Designed atomic Redis operations using Lua scripts to ensure consistency under high concurrency, eliminating race conditions in distributed systems with even 100+ concurrent servers.

ReelSlider
- Manifest V3 Chrome extension that injects real video controls into Instagram — seek, volume, and playback speed (0.25×–2.0×) for Reels, Stories, Feed, and Posts.
- Prototype-locks HTMLMediaElement.prototype.muted to prevent Instagram from overriding the user's audio preference; syncs mute, volume, and speed via localStorage and chrome.storage.local across sessions.
- Background service worker handles preference injection into new tabs via chrome.scripting.executeScript, syncing popup changes to all open Instagram tabs in real time.
- Keyboard shortcuts (A/S/D seek, M mute, F fullscreen) and loop section controls ([ / ] keys) for power users — all running entirely in the browser with zero external network requests.

Brainly
- Collaborative note-taking platform supporting content creation, organization, and embedding of social media content (YouTube, Twitter, Reddit) with real-time synchronization capabilities.
- RESTful backend with Node.js and Express.js following MVC design pattern, implementing efficient MongoDB queries for content retrieval and user data management.
- JWT-based authentication system with secure token generation and validation, ensuring role-based access control for shared workspaces.
