I'm a software engineer at Bruno, building tools developers use to test their APIs. After work, I trade code for books. Both have plot twists. Only one comes with tests.

stuff i worked on at Bruno

Bruno is an open-source app developers use to test APIs, the connections apps use to talk to each other.

  • Building GraphQL queries by picking fieldsA query builder that lets you choose the fields you want from a list, so you don't have to write the GraphQL query by hand.
  • Live connections with WebSocketsSome apps keep a connection open to send messages back and forth, like a chat. I made it possible to save many messages and reuse them, and to connect to servers that need security certificates.
  • Auto saveYour work saves as you type, so you don't lose changes.
  • Moving over from PostmanMany people switch to Bruno from tools like Postman. I worked on importing their existing work, including translating their scripts so they keep working in Bruno.
  • Running many requests at onceThe collection runner sends a whole list of requests in one go, for example to test an app end to end. I added a detailed timeline of each run and support for richer test data files.
  • Bruno from the terminalTeams run Bruno in automated pipelines without opening the app. I added login methods like OAuth 2.0 and made scripts run in safe mode by default.
  • Keeping passwords and keys safeCompanies keep passwords and API keys in vaults like Azure Key Vault, AWS and HashiCorp Vault. I connected Bruno to these, and added support for company proxy settings.
  • ScriptingBruno lets you write small JavaScript snippets that run before or after a request. I added new functions for these scripts, like reading cookies or checking the size of a response.
  • Settings that apply everywhereSet login details once for a whole folder, see which headers Bruno sends by default, give environments like dev and production their own color, and edit variables right where you use them.

stuff i worked on at Dukaan

Dukaan helps small businesses open an online store in a few minutes.

  • The shopping side of the appThe buyer side is what shoppers see when they visit a Dukaan store, browse products and place an order. I built features and fixed issues across that flow.
  • An invoice app with AIAn internal tool I built from scratch. You upload an invoice and AI reads it and pulls out details like amounts, dates and items, so nobody has to type them in by hand.
  • Bot9 integrationsBot9 is Dukaan's AI chatbot for customer support. I connected it to platforms like Discord, so businesses can reply to customers where they already talk.

stuff i worked on at Ellenox

Ellenox builds apps for startups. This is where I learned to build mobile apps.

  • A golf appA mobile app for golfers, built with React Native so it runs on both iPhone and Android from one codebase.
  • A peer support health appAn app that connects people going through similar health challenges, so they can talk to and support each other.
  • From intern to full stackI joined as a frontend intern working on app screens, and grew into a full stack role building the backend behind them too.
