Hi, I'm Prasid Gautam 👋
BCA student building practical software applications with a focus on full-stack and desktop development.
Driven by Passion, Focused on Excellence
Here is a look into my background, academic journey, and what drives me as a software developer.
I am a dedicated and hardworking individual with a positive attitude and a strong willingness to learn. I enjoy taking on challenges, working in teams, and improving myself continuously. I am organized, responsible, and committed to achieving my goals.
I am comfortable designing and implementing end-to-end features across frontend and backend layers, integrating relational databases and authentication flows. I work with Java, JavaFX, Next.js, TypeScript, React, Node.js and SQL-based systems, and I am seeking hands-on experience through internships or entry-level projects in web and desktop application development.
Outside of code, I enjoy photography and creative visual arts, exploring new music, cooking, and travelling to experience different cultures.

StudyBuddy — Student Companion Desktop App
JavaFX-based desktop application for student collaboration and study management, built with Java and SQL Server using an MVC-style architecture. Includes user authentication and registration, profile management, role-based admin moderation, notes management, resource upload and sharing, Q&A, and a student dashboard. Flow: UI → Controller → Service → DAO → Database Connection → SQL Server.
Photography Portfolio CMS
A photography portfolio built around moments, emotions and stories captured through light and composition. Public pages load content from a CMS API, with an admin panel for managing content and uploads. Uses a Node.js backend, Supabase PostgreSQL and Storage, HMAC-signed session cookies for stateless admin auth, brute-force rate limiting, serverless deployment on Vercel, and optional Gemini-powered photo analysis.
Personal Blog
A blog site for publishing articles on technology, learning experiences and personal growth, with a clean, responsive design. Includes home, about, blog and contact pages, an in-browser editor page, and a Node.js server.
Personal Portfolio (HTML/CSS/JS)
First version of my portfolio: a responsive static website showcasing projects, skills and profile, with About, Skills, Services, Projects and Contact pages. Built to practice front-end fundamentals and responsive design.
Student Management System (C)
Console-based, menu-driven student management system written in C for my first-year final assignment. Supports adding, searching (by roll number, first name or course ID), updating and deleting student records, and counting students, using structures, arrays and functions.
QR Code Generator
A small web tool that generates QR codes from user input, built with HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
