Hi There!

I’m Reena, a full stack dev that loves building applications with JavaScript, Ruby, HTML Canvas, Sinatra and Threejs. The best part about my job is the never-ending learning curve. Seeing my thoughts and ideas taking shape in working software that helps people in their everyday use of the product thrills me, and I am looking for a close knit group of like minded people that value free thinking and a challenge.

What's Cooking

My love for food and cooking inspired me to build this recipe search site with features as

  • search based on ingredients
  • search based on diet type
  • saving recipes as favorites

The poject was built using

  • Rails4
  • Postgres as the database
  • Bootstrap for the designing
  • edaman API for the recipes

Plan Easy

PlanEasy is an event planner that helps users organise any type of event right from birthday parties to conferences. With PlanEasy a user can

  • create an event
  • manage its guest list
  • send invites receive the RSVP status

This is only an MVP and further releases would include features like sending personalised invites, an event to do’s list and tracker, and Geo-location related hints

The project was built using

  • Rails4
  • Postgres as the database
  • Bootstrap for the designing
  • Mandrill for the mailing service
  • jQuery

Tic Tac Toe

Tic tac toe reminds me of those innocent days where school recess meant small scribbles of knots and crosses(as we called it then) with friends. This memory inspired me to build two versions of the project. One was using HTML canvas and another version as a battle setting between Yoda and Darth Vader.

These versions were built using

  • HTML5 Canvas
  • jQuery
  • CSS

Drawsome

This group project was inspired from "Drawful" by Jackful games and was designed for 3-8 players, each competing on separate web browsers.

The game features

  • free hand drawing onto a blank space
  • real-time drawing effect across all clients
  • interactive chat session
  • pleasant gaming experience
The project was built using
  • HTML5's Canvas API with help from the Paper.js library
  • websockets for client/server communication
  • Backbone and Rails4
  • Postgres as the database

A little about me

A funloving, bubbly and highly motivated gal is what I am.

Professionally, I am an enthusiastic and passionate web developer with a year plus experience in technologies like Ruby on Rails, Node.js, React.js, Javascript, HTML5 and CSS in addition to four plus years of experience in EAI/Middleware technologies in the banking domain.

Qualities that I associate myself to are passion, people skills, team player and result oriented. I love what I do and I believe that its never too late to learn anything.

Apart from coding I love being a Gemini, dancing, cooking and reading books.
