Oppia is an online learning tool that enables anyone to easily create and share interactive activities.
Selected as a Google Summer of Code (GSoC) student contributor and later mentor with Oppia, an open-source platform for interactive learning. My project focused on improving type safety across the codebase by enabling strict TypeScript checks — enhancing code robustness, maintainability, and reducing runtime errors.
🔧 Key Contributions:
Converted over 240+ files to strict TypeScript, split across two major milestones.
Created a comprehensive developer guide on strict typing, now part of Oppia’s internal wiki.
Actively contributed to release testing, identifying and documenting bugs related to UI/UX and feature stability.
