Ronday was an online platform for connection and collaboration. It provided a level of immersion and "magic" that was difficult to replicate in any other online collaboration platformsI wore many hats while at Ronday; during my time there I worked on the Unity app features, Electron port, React port and features, and internal tools.Towards the end I was leading the front end React team and focused a lot on React and Unity performance optimizations in order to increase our Space capacity from 25 users to 100 users.Here is the highlights of some of the things I worked on, but certainly not everything:- Built Unity native functionality (Windows parity) for MacOS, allowing Ronday to function on MacOS- System/Interactive work: Overhauled Networking from Photon to DR2, Snowball Fights, Deep Linking- Created IPC system for Unity App to communicate with Electron Wrapper- Created Unity Editor & Electron test system, speeding up iteration times for Unity devs.- Converted IPC system to work with WebGL app and React UI layer (part of porting Ronday from Unity Native to Unity WebGL)- Optimized React performance, increasing users in a space from 20 to 75- Created HTML Canvas UI system driven by Unity WebGL data (Part of optimizations)- Built an LLM driven Terrain Generator web app for a pivot attempt
