## Who am I?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Hi, I'm Mariano Riefolo. I'm passionate about the world of computer science,
|
||
|
with a focus on software development and cybersecurity. When I'm not coding,
|
||
|
you can find me reading a book or learning new skills. I'm driven by projects that
|
||
|
challenge me to learn and grow, and I'm dedicated to delivering exceptional results.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## My education
|
||
|
|
||
|
I graduated from [ITET Cassandro Fermi Nervi](https://cassandroferminervi.edu.it)
|
||
|
in Barletta with a High School Diploma in Computer Science and Telecommunications
|
||
|
with highest honors (100/100). I am currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science
|
||
|
at the [University of Bari Aldo Moro](https://uniba.it). Throughout my academic journey,
|
||
|
I have had the opportunity to participate in various projects and competitions.
|
||
|
In addition to my formal education, I have also completed certifications through
|
||
|
courses offered at ITET Cassandro Fermi Nervi. Furthermore, I gained practical
|
||
|
experience through a summer internship at
|
||
|
[Sanmarco Informatica](https://www.sanmarcoinformatica.com/) in Barletta in 2023
|
||
|
where I developed my Java programming skills.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Projects
|
||
|
|
||
|
[FlowSchool](https://git.riefolo.me/mariano/flowschool-mobile-application)
|
||
|
|
||
|
I developed a mobile app for our team's project to participate in the [JA Italia](https://www.jaitalia.org/)
|
||
|
competition. The app allows users to log in to their account using a REST API,
|
||
|
scan a QR code, and send it to the API hosted on my server. I developed the app using
|
||
|
Android Studio, Kotlin, and Jetpack Compose.
|
||
|
|
||
|
[School Schedule Web App](https://git.riefolo.me/mariano/orario-scolastico-itet)
|
||
|
|
||
|
I created a web app that automatically scrapes the school's website, retrieves
|
||
|
the PDF, and generates schedules for teachers and classes. The schedules are
|
||
|
displayed on a dynamic page and can also be accessed through a REST API.
|
||
|
For this project, I used Rust with Axum for the backend
|
||
|
and vanilla JavaScript for API data retrieval
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Competitions
|
||
|
|
||
|
- [Olicyber](https://olicyber.it/): I participated in this CTF (Capture The Flag)
|
||
|
competition three times, reaching the national level.
|
||
|
- [Cyberchallenge](https://cyberchallenge.it/): I participated in this
|
||
|
attack-and-defense competition once, representing the Polytechnic University of
|
||
|
Bari. The competition is for high school and university students.
|
||
|
- [Olimpiadi Italiane di Informatica](https://olinfo.it/): I participated in this
|
||
|
competitive programming competition three times, reaching the national level twice.
|
||
|
- [Olimpiadi di Informatica a Squadre](https://squadre.olinfo.it/):
|
||
|
I participated in this team-based
|
||
|
competitive programming competition twice, but did not reach the national level.
