This site runs best with JavaScript enabled.Work - Biboswan Roy

Currently working remotely for a Copenhagen based startup and building a new kind of professional network platform out of project history feats.co🔥. More update on this later.

I software engineered at Resto-G(intern), Mozilla (contributor), StudioYou (intern) and Creatella (part-time dev). Each was a unique experience owing to their different company cultures and phases the respective companies were at.

I have also interned at IIM Lucknow in Data Science and Anaytics.

Somehow everything remote till date.

Projects

Below is a some of what of I have done so far.
  • Screenshot of the extension's panel opened and in use in devtools

    Web Extension - A11y Gradient

    Chrome Extension
    Accessibility
    Developer Tools
    Javascript
    • It gives you contrast ratio (accessibility standards) for text against each pixel of multi-colored backgrounds.
    • Chrome developer tools gives you contrast ratio of text against only monochromatic backgrounds.
    • There are so many sites using gradients or images as backgrounds. The texts are not accessible because there is no tool to assess them.
    • This tool will help you fix those issues. You can compare background against text color, text border and even element border. There is no specification for element borders but I think it might help in making better visually appealing UIs.
