Worked as a fullstack engineer at hashnode. Worked on ReactJS on frontend and ExpressJS on the backend. The website was server side rendered.

• Built the search feature from scratch handling all the backend and frontend dependencies. Wrote an article on it too https://hashnode.com/post/how-we-built-our-new-search-using-algolia-cinemi2300008e153l9i6gxj6
• Built the open source project mern.io.

Have worked on various projects in Cleartax serving more than 2.5 million users.

Built some products from scratch alone.

• Worked on the Cleartax filing product which is used by more than 2.5 million individuals.
• Built the business audit filing product from scratch alone which is used by 1,00,000 CA all across the country
• Worked on the Investment platform for Cleartax(https://cleartax.in/save) which is used by 1,00,000 investors for investing in mutual funds. Initially the project was on React/Redux but later was moved to Next.js
• Built the architecture for more than 5000 mutual fund pages (https://cleartax.in/mf) using Next.js
• Improved the page rending speed for Mutual fund product by figuring out rendering optimisations and thus improving the product conversion

While working at hashnode.com built mern stack boilerplate (https://github.com/Hashnode/mern-starter). The boilerplate got a lot of traction and was trending on Github and hackernews on the launch. Also built the CLI tool(https://github.com/Hashnode/mern-cli) for installing the project

Did a small experiment after reading an article by Jake Archibald. Cached the app header and then the page body was streamed inside the service worker. Was appreciated by Jake Archibald for the experiment

Created a CLI as a fun side project for learning to build the CLI apps.

This was the first ReactJS side project i worked on.
