Deep Learning Indaba

Collaborated with developers from Entellect, RetroRabbit and Google Deepmind on building Baobab, the Deep Learning Indaba's official applications and management portal.

This was my first ever open source, remote work project, and I had a ton of fun with it. It was also built on a stack that I had never used before and had a lot of fun learning, namely:
 - ReactJS
 - Python
 - Flask
 - Postgres

This was also my first exposure to containerization, we used Docker for it, and it was great learning to use it, and adding it as a tool to my toolbelt.
