Web Development

Front-end Web Development at Flux.ai (Jan. 2023 - Apr. 2024)

• Implemented bug fixes and features for a browser-based PCB editor, with a focus on graphics, rendering, and performance
• Shipped code on instancing, camera behavior, visual testing, raycasting, GPU picking with custom GLSL shaders, stenciling, and hover selection/interaction performance
• Developed primarily using TypeScript, Three.js, React, React Three Fiber, WebGL, and GLSL

Approval Workflow Engine (Intern Project for Varis, Summer 2022)

• A business rules engine that processes purchase requests and manages corresponding approval workflows
• With extensive configuration options, users can edit business rules, approve or deny orders, reprocess requests, and have comprehensive status updates, all from an intuitive web interface
• Frontend UI using Javascript and React, backend API using Go, and database access/design using PostgreSQL
• Includes unit and integration tests with over 80% code coverage integrated into a CI/CD pipeline

Virtual Earth System Laboratory
(Undergraduate Research Programming for JPL / Wayne Hayes's Group at UCI, Winter 2020)

• Earth system science simulations and testing using JavaScript and Playwright for web browser automation

JavaScript 30

• A collection of ~30 mini-projects using vanilla JavaScript
• Based on the 30-day coding challenge by Wes Bos

Advanced CSS Example

• Static website landing page featuring responsive design
• Built for Advanced CSS Concepts course by Microsoft

Practice IPA (no longer maintained)

• Find word pronunciation with phonetic symbols (IPA) and audio
• Quiz yourself and save progress on alphabets, frequency lists, and other word lists
• Tech stack: Django (backend), Amazon S3 (file service), Heroku (deployment), Bootstrap (frontend)

Periscopin (no longer maintained)

• Live stream agreggator of periscope broadcasts, displayed on a world map
• Information obtained using Twitter API and web scraping from periscope.tv

Computer Graphics

Rasterizer

• A rasterizer built in C++ that renders SVG files
• Supports texture mapping and anti-aliasing using trilinear filtering with mipmaps

Mesh Editor

• A mesh editor built in C++ that can manipulate geometric mesh model data
• Features include Bézier surface modeling, local remeshing operations such as edge flips and edge splits, and mesh upsampling via loop subdivision

Ray Tracer

• A physically based renderer using path tracing for global illumination
• Uses a bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) as an acceleration structure for ray-object intersection
• Uses adaptive sampling to reduce noise and improve rendering quality

Cloth Simulation

• Real-time physical simulation of cloth with mass-spring computational modeling
• GLSL shader implementations for diffuse lighting, Blinn-Phong shading, texture mapping, bump/displacement mapping, and environment-mapped reflections

Quads

• Computational pixel art: animate quadtrees of images using their color statistics

Nature in Code Simulations

• Biology simulations and visualizations using JavaScript

Data Processing

N-body Simulation

• A parallelized N-body simulation in C++ using the MPI (Message Passing Interface) protocol for high-performance computing, with optimizations using Barnes-Hut approximation algorithms
• Includes a visualization of the simulation using OpenGL

K-Means Machine Learning

• A k-means machine learning algorithm optimized for performance using C++ and CUDA GPU programming

Distfit
(Undergraduate Research Project for Wayne Hayes's Group at UCI, Winter 2020)

• Python program that performs automated statistical tests, turning research data into scientific results

Wiktionary Explorer

• Python program to parse wiktionary's wikitext data format to extract and transform pronunciation data into a structured format
