The goal is to make an application that allows you to obtain information about which zipping process would be the most optimal for a particular file (Video, Image, Text, etc.)

Lets try and make our own WEISMANN SCORE eh?

BTW I am looking at this being a backend heavy program so be wary

1. Golang(for parallelism) / Rust (for speed)
2. Next.js / Remix.js (to make Arnav notice you)

This is what a medium level difficulty backend would look like for golang (Cheers Navin!)

This is what a medium level difficulty frontend would look like for next.js

Why dont you get familiar and start off by utilising a zipping library to try and zip the file in any manner. You could make it so that the file contents could be accepted on postman or insomnia.

You want to delve deeper and come up with your own alogrithm for zipping? Be my guest this can only be more beneficial to yourself.

Parallelising would be welcome but I wouldnt bet on that being accepted.

Now that you came up with the zipping formula make another function/module that would be able to determine a score for the zipping.

One would wish for the formula to be based on time, compression ratio, etc. But hey you found a metric that could be of siginificance that would be awesome !

Do not look at my own profile, cause you might just call me a hypocrite but now you all better have gotten started on making a simple frontend.

A simple score displayer along with the ability to download the zipped file generated would be awesome, previous statistics or any analytical models/shapes.

Now that you are done with one implementation of the zipping technique,do it again see any optimisations, using more and different libraries for this will be noticed.

I want to see you all go wild come on people lets do this.

You may have seen that doing all the zips at the same time might be a bit slow, like really slow, like holy shit this is slow. Now I introduce you into parallelising your methods, with one mind numbing understanding of how it works later you will finally be able to achieve slightly better speeds.

Let's see if you are up for the challenge!
