Introducing DocuFlow!

I built an intelligent invoice ingestion pipeline that turns unstructured PDF invoices into structured financial data.

Built with Python, Docker, OCR & more.

Here's how it works

DocuFlow is on GitHub!
Explore the code, check out the architecture, and let me know what you'd improve.
What would you tackle first ?
Star the repo if you like it

Building DocuFlow pushed me to think beyond writing scripts: task queues, service boundaries, persistence, duplicate detection & containerization all matter.

There's more to improve, but that's the fun of building in public.

Global Hack Week may be over, but Hacktoberfest is only halfway through. There's still more to build, more open-source projects to explore, an IRL Hack Day ahead, and plenty left to learn. On to the next chapter.

Global Hack Week: Hacktoberfest is officially over. Six days of livestreams, hands-on challenges, open-source AI experiments, and community events. I came in wanting to learn, and I'm leaving with a lot more to explore.

Loved the simple challenges which Global hack week had. Never really used Github codespaces before. Used it for the first time and explored how to use codespaces and do its challenges. Not only codespace but did the Intro to Repository Management.

After days of building, learning, and connecting with the community online, I'm taking Hacktoberfest fest offline this Sunday!

Excited for Hack Day Bengaluru at BMSCE. Looking forward to meeting fellow developers, sharing ideas, and building together.

One day left in Global Hack Week: Hacktoberfest. From open-weight AI experiments to hands-on challenges and community sessions, this week has been packed. Excited to see how the final day unfolds.

Today's #GlobalHackWeek sessions kicked off with Gemma and the Open Model Ecosystem. I've been exploring open-weight AI throughout Hacktoberfest, so this was right up my alley.

Closed out the day's stream lineup with Render Workflows. Another opportunity to explore developer tooling and think about how these tools fit into real-world development.
