  Software Engineer

  - Developed a Zustand Chrome dev tool that allows developers to time-travel between state changes, optimizing the debugging process with comprehensive snapshots of the application- Established a persistent data bridge between the user’s application and the developer tool through background scripts and Chrome browser content scripts in order to listen for event changes and component-level updates using Chrome DevTools API- Implemented D3.js to produce a dynamic, interactive hierarchy tree, allowing developers to visualize their React/Zustand parent-child components to make organization easier, simplifying and minimizing component view by allowing users the ability to toggle between collapsible child components- Integrated TypeScript to enforce static typing and to improve the debugging process by catching errors at compile-time, adding enhanced scalability and readability for future contributors- Developed a custom recursive function using React Fiber to efficiently traverse the virtual DOM, capturing React component nodes and their nested children, while also integrating the subscribed Zustand store and state for each node in the user's application- Implemented Zustand as the state management library in a React application, ensuring consistent state across all components and reducing boilerplate code with its lightweight and efficient approach- Product developed under tech accelerator with OS Labs (opensourcelabs.io) Show less
