PROJECTS

LightPy.com

LightPy.com is a Light-weight online IDE I've built. You can edit and run Python code online. It was built using AWS serverless technologies(AWS Amplify, API Gateway, AWS Lambda). It was more about playing with serverless technologies more than anything else.



Open Omnia

Open Omnia is a mathematics app I've developed for web and android. It solves problems step-by-step. Plots graphs. Has notes. Has quizzes for students. Check it out here: openomnia.com You can download the android app here. I developed the web application in Python with Flask. The Android App is developed in Java, JavaScript and XML. I recommend using the web application. I don't update the android app much.

Midnight Rain

Midnight Rain is an android game I work on in weekends or whenever I find time. In the game you listen to music while endlessly travell through a tunnel. The game speed and effects auto-adjust to the music you are listening to. The game is about 35% done. I work on it on my spare time. Planning on launching it in January 2021. I am developing it with Unity and C#.

Quantum

I've always had a keen interest in the Stock Market. Quantum is a Quantitative Finance tool I've developed for Financial Models, forecasting and running automated trades. I recently started the project. I've only tested it out on Demo Platform. I have developed it in Python using various Python librabries; From Scikit-learn to Matplotlib.

ABOUT

A young innovator, I am Computer Sciences graduate from UKZN. Having the advantage of firsthand experience of the plight of many in South Africa, my ideals are centered around development and achieving maximum impact. I am an app developer, currently working on Open Omnia, a mobile app that I hope will achieve my dream of providing access to high quality mathematics education across socio-economic boundaries. Open Omnia allows the user to capture their math problem & have the answer computed, displaying step by step calculations. You can find the web application on openomnia.com. You can download the android app here.

Shortlisted from 198 entrants, I was placed as the first runner-up in a competition pioneered by Ithala Development Finance Corporation. My heart for people, business sense & keen interest in global current affairs are apparent in my work which maintains a standard of relevance across spectrums. My keen interest in finance, politics & technology forecast a bright future of personal endeavors that will directly impact local & global communities. I spend my spare time reading, brushing up on my coding and planning new projects. One part social activist, and one part nerd.
