Project 03Solo Developer & Designer
AQSWAR is a digital archive for the works of Bahraini journalist Aqeel Swar, containing more than 4,000 articles, scripts, and photographs spanning two decades of Bahraini journalism and art. I built the archive from scratch, normalizing filenames, structuring metadata, and building a filterable React interface that lets readers browse by year, publisher, or medium.
2027 roadmap: full-text Arabic search powered by Google Cloud Vision API OCR. The goal is to make every document in the archive searchable by phrase, topic, or person. OCR accuracy on Arabic handwritten and printed text remains a challenge, and the implementation is being carefully tested before full rollout.
