Overview

Platnm is your one stop shop for all musical discourse. In the Fall of 2024 I joined Generate as a software engineer, where I worked throughout the stack to help build Platnm. Using Nix as a package manager for cross-platform development, my team and I iterated weekly by working on backend (Go + Fiber) and frontend (React Native + Expo) tickets. By the end of the 4 months of development we had a working MVP that we were able to present to the community at Northeastern, and ultimately hand off to our client.
