Project Kelebek
September 1 - April 1
Project Kelebek is a web scraping and data analysis tool that uses node like visual for its operations similar to Unreal Engine and Houdini. This application uses many state of the art technologies such multithreading, asyncio, requests, aiohttp, lxml, Qt, QML and JavaScript. Personally I believe this project has a lot of potential to become a commercial software as it is easy to use and provides users flexibility on top of this appealing design.
