1) Daxeel, introduce yourself.

I am Daxeel Soni, 17 years old guy from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. I do coding daily. I practice it and innovate new things with my coding skills. Well, i make apps which can be used by people to solve their different daily life problems. My mission is to help our society and make our society – a tech society with computer programming. I have made different apps in Python/TkInter, Bash, C and JavaScript.

DON’T JUST TRY TO BE A CONSUMER, TRY TO BE A MAKER

Apart from coding, I love to read business and tech blogs, play guitar, listen to music, play cricket and read inspirational books.

2) Explain the projects you have done so far.

In my journey of programming, I’ve done so many projects. Here are some of them:

• LMS – Library Management Software : This is a very advanced library management windows software. You can manage your customers and thousands of books. Even you can search any specific book from that books with LMS-ASM (Advanced Search Mechanism)
• TestZone : TestZone keeps all the teachers and students under a single roof. As a administrator you can analyze student’s performance, see teacher’s test, remove any student or teacher, change and recover password of any TestZone campus. As a teacher you can create any number of tests with any number of questions and these tests can be of two type – (1) Single Word Test and (2) MCQ Test. TestZone will automatically generate a test ID. As a student with the help of teacher name and test ID you can solve any number of tests which were created by your teachers in TestZone. TestZone keeps all the results of all the tests answered by a student.
• PST – Property Search Tool : This is a windows based property search software. I developed this for my dad. My dad can save number of records and search any record from them. After this my dad told me to make this for his Android Mobile and then i developed it for Android OS and also for Linux OS.

Most of my projects are open source and you can find my all projects at my GitHub page : http://github.com/daxeel

My inspiration source is in my home – My Dad. He is not in the field of computer or programming. But he is a person who does his every small work with perfection. He is a symbol of perfection. One day, he told me that if i will not be a perfect at my every work (even smaller), then a bug in my code will always waiting for me to remove it. So, he always inspire me to work perfectly and it doesn’t matter which work you are doing.
