Hi, I am Sanchit. I am a student, a researcher in robotics, a web developer, a drone specialist and a hardcore tech enthusiast. I love to tinker around with prototyping platforms and research on new technologies. As a child i wanted to be a pilot but later I found out my interest in robotics, research and development (R&D). I always like to help people as much as possible.
So far it has been a great experience but i am craving for more and could not sit idle :P
FOSSASIA is a great organisation, you should join it too :) , If you looking to dive into open source development (recommending you guys on my personal experience).
If you want to work on some projects by fossasia to get started have a look at these:
Lok-lak_server:
loklak is a server application which is able to collect messages from various sources, including twitter. The server contains a search index and a peer-to-peer index sharing interface. All messages are stored in an elasticsearch index. An automatic deployment from the development branch at GitHub is available for tests here 'Lok Lak' is also a very tasty Cambodian stir-fry meat dish (usually beef) with a LOT of fresh black pepper. If you ever have the chance to eat Beef Lok Lak, please try it. I hope not to scare vegetarians with this name, currently I am one as well.
Lok-lak_Search:
The loklak_search creates a website using the loklak server as a data source. The goal is to get a search site, that offers timeline search as well as custom media search, account and geolocation search.
In order to run the service you can use the API of http://api.loklak.org or install your own loklak server data storage engine. loklak_server is a server application which collects messages from various social media tweet sources, including twitter. The server contains a search index and a peer-to-peer index sharing interface. All messages are stored in an elasticsearch index.
A sample site of this repo is deployed on the GitHub gh-pages branch and automatically deployed here:
Open-Event Webapp:
Open Event Webapp The Open Event Web App project has two components a) an event website generator and b) the actual generated website output.
The web generator application can generate event websites by getting data from event JSON files and binary media files, that are stored in a compressed zip file. You can also access the application through a REST API. Websites that are generated by the "web app generator" can be uploaded to any web location, e.g. on Github pages or any server (e.g. via ftp).
