Experience

  • Order Monitoring Bot
    https://github.com/teimurjan/go-els-tg-bot

    I often order something from US online stores like Amazon, eBay, and others. It is not so simple to do that because most of these eCommerce sites cannot send packages to my country. So, like many people, I use a third-party company that helps me with that. It's a good workaround except for one thing—every time I want to know the status of my order, I need to go to the store's website, copy the tracking number, go to the third-party company's website, and check it there.

    I decided to make this process simpler by creating a telegram messenger bot that remembers my tracking numbers and then monitors them. If the status is changed, the messenger will notify me immediately. The project is written in Go and is based on clean code and clean architecture principles.

  • Synchronize Your Redux State with URL Query Parameters
    https://www.npmjs.com/package/sync-query-redux

As a workaround, I created a library for both GitHub gists and GitLab snippets with a CORS proxy URL parameter.

  • Digit Recognizer
    https://github.com/teimurjan/digits-recognizer
