Hi, I'm Zhanar
I develop user-friendly products.
About me
My name is Zhanar Osmonaliev. I am a student software developer. I believe in design quality and always pay attention to details because that's what makes a great product.
I have led a team of students as a Designer and a Lead Developer to create TinyDesk - a web application to help you manage your bookmarks and boost your productivity.
I am currently pursuing an undergraduate degree in Computer Science with a specialization in AI and Data Science at Stony Brook University.
Projects
TinyDesk
TinyDesk is a web application that lets users manage bookmarks and boost their productivity with handy widgets.
The project was supervised by Alex Kuhn (ex-Apple Engineer) and was led by me as a Lead Developer and Designer. I was mainly responsible for system architecture and user interface design.
It was built with GatsbyJS & Material UI and deployed to Heroku.
Github Globe
If you ever visited Github's homepage, you will notice a 3D globe that visualizes platform's current activity.
I decided to recreate it with ThreeJS and make the project open-source. I built the Globe using Vasco Asturiano's three-globe as base, shaded the 3D scene to resemble a dreamy space environment and bundled everything with Webpack.
Additionally, the Globe visualizes my flight history across the world from 2019 to 2020. So far, this is my most popular open-source project, with 95+ stars on Github.
Crime Data Visualization
Data visualization dashboard with brushing and linking features implemented with D3.js. It features Manhattan borough crime data from 2019 to 2021 compiled by NYPD.
Dashboard has filters to display data for specific age group and gender for both suspects and victims. Interactive map allows area selection for more detailed insight.
Special thanks to Klaus Muller for an introduction to data visualization.
