Developed and launched an NFC-enabled contact card as part of the hackclub/OnBoard repository, delivering a tangible prototype that allows users to store contact information and link to a website. The work included designing the PCB using schematic and Gerber files, integrating basic hardware concepts, and producing a comprehensive README in Markdown to document the project’s purpose, cost, and development process. By providing detailed documentation and production-ready design assets, the contribution improved onboarding for future collaborators and established a reusable foundation for subsequent NFC card enhancements. The project demonstrated skills in hardware design, PCB layout, and technical documentation using Markdown and PDF.
January 2025 (2025-01) — Key feature delivered: Adam's Hacker Card project launch (NFC-enabled contact card) for hackclub/OnBoard, including a README detailing purpose, cost, and development experience, plus PCB design assets (schematic, Gerber, and card image). No major bugs fixed this month. Overall impact: provides a tangible, reusable NFC card prototype that documents the process and serves as a foundation for future enhancements, while improving contributor onboarding and project clarity. Technologies/skills demonstrated: NFC/hardware concept integration, PCB design basics (schematic, Gerber), comprehensive project documentation, and cross-repo collaboration to deliver a cohesive feature set.
