My Role

Solo developer. I built the desktop app in C with a GTK and Glade UI and SQLite storage, including donor management and event scheduling.

Overview

A desktop application I built to help blood banks manage donation drives. Written in C with a GTK graphical interface - this was a university project that taught me a lot about low-level programming.

Features

Donor Management - Register donors, track blood types and donation history
Event Scheduling - Create donation drives, manage time slots
Eligibility Check - Automatically calculates when donors can donate again (56 days)
Inventory Tracking - Monitor blood stock by type
Search & Reports - Find donors by blood type, generate statistics

Tech Stack

Language: C
GUI: GTK 3, Glade
Database: SQLite

What I Learned

This project was my intro to:

Manual memory management in C (lots of Valgrind debugging)
Event-driven GUI programming with GTK
SQL and database design
Building things with Makefiles
