Vihaan Sharma
My coding journey began in grade 5, when I discovered I could edit website text with Inspect Element — and prank my friends. By grade 9, I was deep into freeCodeCamp, learning HTML and CSS, and I’ve been creating projects ever since. My Coding folder might be a chaotic mess, but it’s home to everything from fun experiments to polished web apps — some of my favorites are featured above.
Outside of coding, I’m into TV shows, anime, AI, badminton, and working out. This fall, I’m starting my undergrad at the University of Toronto, and I’m excited for what’s next.

Hack49 Global
Hackathon
A full-stack hackathon management platform I built as Co-Founder of Hack49 Global, handling registration, team formation, and judging for hundreds of international participants.
https://hack49.comAs the Co-Founder and Lead Engineer of Hack49 Global, I architected and built the entire digital infrastructure that powered this global hackathon. Rather than relying on rigid third-party tools, I developed a bespoke, full-stack management platform designed to handle the complete event lifecycle—from initial participant registration to final project judging. The system served as the central hub for hundreds of participants and administrators, ensuring a seamless experience for our international community.

envpass
Encrypted secret sharing for hackathon teams.
A web app for securely sharing API keys and environment variables with your team. Create a room, share a 6-character code, and sync secrets in real-time — encrypted via WorkOS Vault, zero plaintext at rest.
https://envpass.vhaan.meEvery hackathon team hits the same moment — someone sets up the Stripe sandbox and the OpenAI key and now needs to get those credentials to three other teammates. What follows is API keys dumped raw in Discord DMs, .env screenshots in group chats, and secrets sitting in plaintext in places they shouldn't be. envpass replaces that entire workflow with a secure, real-time vault. Create a room, get a 6-character invite code, and your team has an encrypted space to share secrets — synced instantly via Convex, encrypted at rest via WorkOS Vault, and shredded when the hackathon's over.
