I have a solid foundation in low-level programming with C, demonstrated through projects like:

• printf: Custom implementation of the printf function from scratch, showcasing a deep understanding of C's memory management and variadic functions.

• simple_shell: A UNIX command line interpreter built entirely in C, implementing core shell functionality and process management.

• Highlighted complex data structures among numerous implementations, showcasing proficiency in advanced algorithmic design and low-level memory management: Hash Table, Stacks and Queues, and Linked Lists.

• For those interested in exploring my C programming journey in depth, I invite you to check out my alx-low_level_programming repository, which comprehensively documents my mastery of C and low-level programming concepts.

• Airbnb Clone: A full-stack Airbnb clone showcasing end-to-end development, built with Flask, MySQL, SQLAlchemy, HTML, CSS, and jQuery. Deployed on AWS using Nginx as a web server and HAProxy as a load balancer.

I've built several production-ready marketplaces using Python and DRF:

• Prime-Eats: A community-driven platform connecting restaurant owners with food enthusiasts.
