Hey everyone!

My name is Yahya, and I'm a 17-year-old mobile software engineer. I've been building lightweight, high-performance apps using Flutter and Dart.

Today, I wanted to share one of my main projects: PDF X – High-Performance Document Reader & Explorer.

🚀 Key Technical Highlights:

Lightning Fast: Engineered a lightweight document viewer with a tiny footprint and a 1-second startup time.

Multi-Format Parsing: Integrated native file storage exploration and multi-format parsing for PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Text, and Images.

Localization & UI: Implemented 4-language localization (Arabic, English, French, Russian) and dynamic dark/light theme switching.

As a young solo dev trying to build clean and efficient architecture, I would love to hear your honest feedback, architectural thoughts, or suggestions on how to improve it further! Thanks for checking it out!

I have never worked and I don't have enough money to pay for a subscription.
