What I do
-
Uploadgram.me
I designed and developed a file sharing service that utilized the Telegram network for storage. My responsibilities included creating the initial version of both the backend and frontend of the project and managing hosting, then, the project was moved to new management, shifting my role to assisting the new owner in managing the service. It gained significant traction, with over 400,000 files uploaded, totaling more than 300 TB of data. On average, the platform saw around 500 GB of new data being uploaded daily, and it attracted over 40,000 users. The service eventually shut down in 2023.

Kotekorbya Pay
Together with my partner Gabriele, I created Kotekorbya Pay, an innovative online payment application, for the Coolest Projects international maker contest. In this project, I primarily focused on the backend development, utilizing PHP and MySQL. My responsibilities included implementing various features such as person-to-person and business payments, QR code purchases from vending machines, and designing a custom SDK for external integrations. I developed a web app and a Telegram bot to efficiently manage user accounts. To handle credit card payments, I integrated the Stripe API into our application. Our unwavering dedication and passion for computer science resulted in us winning the 1st prize internationally in the Advanced Programming category, achieving this remarkable feat at just 12 years old.
