PG-Finder 🏠 — from a classroom assignment to a tool people can actually use.
As an academic project, I set out to solve a problem every student and working professional knows too well — the painful, time-consuming search for a decent paying guest (PG) accommodation. Scattered listings, outdated info, and endless scrolling through WhatsApp groups made the process way harder than it needed to be.
So I built PG-Finder — a platform designed to make searching for PGs simple, fast, and frustration-free. From planning the architecture to writing every line of code, this project pushed me to think beyond the classroom and build something with real-world value.
It's still a work in progress, but I'm proud of how far it's come — and excited to keep improving it.

This is a thoughtful product arc—from a real pain point to a working search experience. The focus on reducing scrolling friction feels like exactly the kind of constraint that makes an academic build useful beyond the classroom.

I developed NutriFit, a responsive landing page for a nutritionist using React and Tailwind CSS. The website includes service sections, consultation options, reviews, FAQs, responsive design for desktop and mobile, language support, and a WhatsApp integration so users can contact the nutritionist directly. The goal was to create a clean and friendly experience that builds trust and makes booking or asking questions easy.
