A discord bot to help with verification, scouting, etc.

Hello, and welcome to my GitHub profile! You can see some of the projects I have worked on here. I graduated from Clemson University in May 2023, and I currently work as a Software Developer for Epic Systems. One of my favorite parts of Computer Science is how hands-on it can be and how easy it is to create something to solve real problems.

In my free time, I also run robotics tournaments for K-12 students, specifically the VEX Robotics Competition and VEX IQ Competition programs. These programs benefitted me massively when I was going through, and nothing else gets me as excited to wake up at 6:00 AM on a Saturday!

Favorite Projects

• tm-switcher (Nodejs)

  • Automation tools to assist competitive robotics tournaments automate their livestreams, removing the possibility for error and reducing load on event staff.
  • Used successfully at dozens of large-scale robotics events, including the Kalahari Classic, South Carolina State Championship, and Northeast Wisconsin Showdown

• Referee FYI (React, Tailwind, Tanstack Query, Cloudflare Workers + DO + KV)

  • Mobile-first PWA designed to assist Head Referees at VRC, VEXU, and VIQRC tournaments record and track violations at an event.

  • Focus on working in low connectivity environments.

  • Sharing feature based on Cloudflare's Durable Objects product for real-time referee collaboration.

• snoostorm (TypeScript)

  • Event-based library for streaming from the Reddit API
  • Over 1200 downloads/month

• mtrx (Rust)

  • Matrix Library using Rust's new Const Generics features
  • Matrix sizes are determined at compile time, allowing for better type checking

• Plausible Denabilities (Preact, Nodejs, Web Sockets)

  • Realtime guessing game based on The Technical Difficulties' Two of These People Are Lying.
  • Players take turns bluffing about a selected prompt, with one player being the judge.

• motes (React, Tailwind, Next.js)

  • Simple note taking app design for writing down quick notes in meetings
  • Designed with keyboard navigability and accessibility in mind
  • Integration with Todoist to add items to a more permenant todo list later on

vexbot's Issues

Remove vexdb completely

vexdb API is outdated and does not account for the new season. robotevents is a wrapper for the new RobotEvents API v2, which is generally a much simpler API and is more understandable.

TODO
[ ] Event Command
[ ] Skills Command
[ ] Team Command

All other commands either have transitioned to the new API, or do not make use of RobotEvents libraries.
