During my time at Homevism, a company specializing in 3D models, I had the opportunity to work on an exciting project. Our goal was to create an interactive web application that allowed users to explore and customize 3D home designs in real-time. I primarily worked on the frontend using React, leveraging libraries like Three.js and React Three Fiber to render complex and realistic models seamlessly within our React components. This setup provided a dynamic and efficient user experience.On the backend, we utilized Node.js to handle data processing and server-side logic, managing the large files associated with 3D models and ensuring fast load times for users. Express.js helped us build a robust API for smooth communication between the frontend and backend. To enhance performance and streamline development, we integrated various libraries such as GSAP for animations, Lodash for data manipulation, and Babel for cross-browser compatibility.One of the most challenging aspects was optimizing user interactions with the 3D models. Implementing intuitive controls for rotating, zooming, and customizing the models required precise handling, and libraries like React-DOM-Interactions and React-Use-Gestures were essential. Designing a user-friendly interface was also critical, and tools like Tailwind CSS and Storybook played crucial roles in prototyping and testing UI components. Overall, this project at Homevism was a fantastic experience.

Starting Parttyme, my own company, was a thrilling challenge, because at that time i do not want to do any job. I built a platform where people could exchange tasks and use cryptocurrencies, employing the MERN stack—MongoDB, Express.js, React, and Node.js. React helped create an engaging user interface, while Redux managed user data and task statuses. On the backend, Node.js and Express.js managed secure data flow and transactions.For cryptocurrency management, we used several key libraries: Web3.js and Ethers.js for interacting with Ethereum, Crypto.js for data encryption, and Bcrypt.js for password security. Mongoose simplified database operations with MongoDB, and Socket.io enabled real-time communication for task updates.Parttyme quickly gained traction, attracting 25,000 users. This surge in traffic was exhilarating and validated our efforts. Despite the success, we faced scaling challenges and regulatory changes in the cryptocurrency market. Ultimately, we decided to sell Parttyme to focus on building a more valuable company in the future. This experience significantly enhanced my programming skills and understanding of both frontend and backend development. It made me a stronger programmer and problem solver, equipping me with valuable skills that continue to propel my career forward.
