Experience
Pesticide Products Database
A web-based application that discloses the database on authorized pesticide products in Myanmar. The database is managed by the Plant Protection Division of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Irrigation. It provides information on the current registration status of authorized pesticide products and other information, such as the active ingredient(s) in the product, the manufacturer, the distributor, and the expiration date of the registration.
With an advanced search tool, you can search the pesticides based on different filters, such as registration number, distributor or manufacturer name, and ingredients.

Online Token Booking System
I developed a booking system that is designed to manage up to 1,000 concurrent requests, as the booking window is only available for a limited time with a restricted number of tokens available for each city. The administrator of the site has the ability to manage the date, time, and tokens that are available for each city.
As part of the booking process, the system performs various validations, including verification of the remaining number of tokens, identifying duplicate bookings within a specific time frame based on user IDs, and ensuring that a token remains available until the final moment for completion. To handle the high volume of concurrent requests, the booking system is deployed on an Nginx server that utilizes a load-balancing approach.

Online Learning Management System
I created an online learning management system that caters specifically to the needs of the local audience. This LMS was built using WordPress, LearnPress, and WooCommerce, with WooCommerce being utilized to handle order processing.
To enable online payments, I integrated a local payment gateway with the system. Additionally, I developed an API that enables the consumption of services by the mobile application.

Laborary Tests Booking System
I developed a web-based booking system implemented for a laboratory, enabling patients to submit requests for medical tests via a mobile application. The assigned healthcare professional is responsible for reviewing and approving the booking. The system incorporates features such as transaction payments, payouts to healthcare professionals, and other relevant functions. Additionally, clinics and companies have the capability to make bulk bookings for their patients and employees.
The system captures all activity logs and provides support for the import and export of multiple modules. Advanced reporting features have been developed, including an array of filters that allow for the export of results in CSV format. Moreover, the system entails the development of APIs to facilitate use by the mobile application.
