About KWOC-
Kharagpur Winter of Code is a 5-week long online programme for students who are new to open source software development. The programme not only helps students to get involved in open source, but also prepares them for many open source summer programmes;
Google Summer of Code being one of them.
It is very hard to imagine that such a large number of people can come together and work on a single code and I'm very thankful that I was able to be a part of it. My contribution in this year's KWOC has been fairly good in my opinion
List of Projects-
I have worked on a single project, namely -
PLAGIARISM CHECKER
( By Rahul Agrawal), link- https://gitlab.com/rahul_799/plagarism-checker
(A GIF demo of the project)
About the project-
Web application of Plagiarism Checker using Python-Flask. TF-IDF and cosine similarity is a very common technique. It allows the system to quickly retrieve documents similar to a search query. Similarly, based on the same concept instead of retrieving documents similar to a query, it checks for how similar the query is to the existing database file.
The repository is on GITLAB. (https://gitlab.com/rahul_799/plagarism-checker)

Pull Requests Merged-
1. Design Overhaul- https://gitlab.com/rahul_799/plagarism-checker/merge_requests/1/diffs
2. Google Search API- https://gitlab.com/rahul_799/plagarism-checker/merge_requests/2/diffs
Summary of my work-
I had some experience in FLASK, PYTHON and WEB DEV before this project and this project surely helped me to enhance my knowledge on these.
I added Bootstrap to this project and gave it a simple yet elegant User Interface. I also made a Google Search API which searches the web for text similarity giving the users an option to search the whole web if one does not know the original source of the Plagiarised Text.
In total, I added 502 lines of code and removed 79 lines.
Overall, the experience has been good and the KWOC team deserves a lot of respect for what they have achieved.
