Dhananjay Pai

Passionate software developer. Currently in my fourth year of Engineering. My interests include Blockchain Technology, web development and databases.

• My journey through technology began with a love for Python, which eventually led me into the world of web development. With a strong foundation in Django and Flask, I mastered various aspects like Jinja templating, REST/gRPC APIs, and database management. Most of my projects were built using these frameworks, demonstrating my commitment to web development.
• My ambitions reach beyond traditional web development. The Crime Bound Token project introduced me to the Ethereum ecosystem, igniting my passion for blockchain and Web3. I'm eager to contribute impactful code, collaborate with talented peers, and explore how blockchain technology can revolutionize industries and solve real-world challenges.

The projects I've built are:
1.)Dogs Network: Since June 2022, I've been actively involved in Dogs Network, a web app connecting users with street dogs by location. I've crafted a robust Rest API using Django Rest Framework, managed data with Django ORM, and ensured smooth data conversion using Serializers for JSON rendering. Deployment on AWS EC2 with RDS database management and Swagger API documentation streamlines accessibility. Technologies include Django, Django Rest Framework, Bootstrap, SQLite, HTML, Swagger, and Jinja2, creating a user-friendly platform for canine connections.
2.) Crime Bound Token: Crime Bound Token, a product of the ETHIndia2022 Hackathon, is designed to meticulously monitor criminal records through the implementation of Non-Transferable ERC721 tokens. These unique tokens can only be minted once and hold an unchangeable status, making them valuable identity markers within the system. As a testament to its innovation, the project mirrors crime records as NFTs in the criminal's wallet. The development stack includes React, EthersJS, IPFS, Solidity, and Hardhat, showcasing a robust combination of technologies to create a secure and unalterable system for tracking and managing criminal records.

Beyond my professional pursuits, I have a diverse range of hobbies and interests. I'm an accomplished athlete, having achieved State Level recognition in both Cricket and Taekwondo, showcasing my commitment to sports. Additionally, I excel in Dodgeball at the State level. In recognition of my passion for technology, I was honored to be selected as an Intel Student Ambassador for IoT, reflecting my enthusiasm for cutting-edge technologies. I'm perpetually curious and deeply passionate about staying at the forefront of emerging technologies and toolkits that have the potential to make a substantial impact on a broad scale, driving innovation within the industry.
