Glyphcast is an interactive studio that converts visual media into animated ASCII output. Each frame is sampled on a pixel grid, mapped to a character set by luminance, styled with typography/effects, and rendered in real time for preview and export.The studio supports:<ul><li>source uploads (image, GIF, video)</li><li>live preview and playback controls</li><li>editable charset, columns, threshold, invert, and appearance controls</li><li>multiple export formats for design, code, and content pipelines</li></ul>

CoSketch is a real-time collaborative drawing platform built to explore modern full-stack development, real-time communication, and scalable architecture. The application allows multiple users to draw, move, resize, and style shapes (like rectangles, ellipses, arrows, lines, and diamonds) on a shared canvas — all synchronised in real-time using WebSockets.This project was created as a deep dive into building full-stack systems with live collaboration features. From WebSocket communication and custom shape management to Docker-based development and CI/CD deployment with GitHub Actions, CoSketch reflects a strong foundation in scalable engineering practices and product thinking.<h3>Tech Stack</h3><ul><li>Frontend: Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Zustand, @tanstack/react-query</li><li>Backend: Express.js, WebSocket server (ws), Node.js</li><li>DevOps: Docker, GitHub Actions, CI/CD workflows</li><li>Architecture: Turborepo monorepo setup using Bun as the JS runtime</li></ul><h3>Key Features</h3><ul><li> Real-time Collaboration: Draw and interact live with others on the same canvas</li><li> Interactive Tools: Select, move, resize, style, and delete shapes</li><li>Modular Architecture: Cleanly separated frontend, backend, and socket server</li><li>Dockerized: Easy local development with Docker support</li><li>CI/CD Ready: Automated deployment pipeline using GitHub Actions</li></ul>
