Experience

Dummy Image and Text Placeholder

https://www.npmjs.com/package/dummy-placeholder
A package for React to place dummy text and images in your app. It is very easy to configure and use. Rather than having multiple paragraphs in your code, just add one line, and it will add the desired number of paragraphs and characters. Similarly, you can add dummy images of any dimensions you want for your placeholders.

iPlex App

An app to automate the internal processes of iPlex.co. I served as a full-stack developer. The app was built using React, Material-UI, Laravel, and MySQL.

The modules included in the app were employee management, HRM, inventory management, clients, projects, project resources, ticketing system, employee learning, employee performance, sales, and employee attendance.

I've started the project, and then two other team members were added to the team. I managed the team and coded as well on the significant modules of the app.
