Back to early work

Zoom Automation

Earlier build from May 2021 exploring Python-based Zoom workflow automation, scheduled desktop actions, screenshot-based UI control, WhatsApp alerts, and hardware-assisted experimentation during remote learning.

Overview

Originally created on GitHub in May 2021, Zoom Automation was an early student-era automation experiment built during remote learning. It explored how Python could open scheduled Zoom class links, interact with the desktop interface through screenshot-based automation, post a predefined class message, trigger WhatsApp notifications, and experiment with hardware-assisted workflow control. This project is included as Early Work because it shows curiosity, creativity, and early automation thinking, not because it was a current product or production Zoom integration.

Problem solved

During remote learning, repeated online-class setup steps created a narrow personal automation problem: opening scheduled Zoom sessions, interacting with the desktop interface, and triggering simple notifications at the right time.

What it does

Runs scheduled Python automation to open Zoom class links, interact with the desktop Zoom/browser interface using screenshot-based automation, post a predefined class message, and optionally send WhatsApp class-start notifications. The project also reflects early experimentation with hardware-assisted workflow control and Windows packaging.

Contribution

Built as an early hands-on automation experiment, covering Python scripting, timed workflows, desktop UI automation, screenshot-based control, notification logic, hardware-assisted experimentation, and Windows executable packaging attempts.
