Teamwork

I have contributed in making website for cultural fest of IGDTUW in a team of 10 people where each one was assigned different pages. I was assigned preloader page and home page which I made using HTML, CSS, Bootstrap and JS. I completed the task under guidance of my senior in University and also helped in removing bugs and adding animations. It was a good opportunity to test and enhance my skills.

Passion

I like the way Public Lab gives it users affordable and sustainable ways to check thier plant health and buy or make their own DIY cameras. Everyone is helpful and respectful in the chat and mentor is very active in providing feedbacks, resolving issues and answering questions.

Audience

It would be great to help in creating a platform which can be used and worked upon by the people where users can themselves give suggestions and help in development.

Commitment

I will give Outreachy my utmost priority for these 13 weeks if I am provided with the opportunity to work here. Every day I will devote 6 hours to accomplish 40 hr per week working condition. I would have a summer break at the same time during July so it'll be convenient for me to devote maximum time to Outreachy.
