BhashaX

1. Whooping 6.56 Billion Humans on Earth don’t speak English, a language on which programming is heavily dependent. Programming is also deemed as the most important job skill of the future. English might emerge as a barrier for 83% of the population living on earth.

2.  BhashaX breaks the barrier by allowing users to code in their mother tongue or the language of their choice. It shall not only enable people of any background to easily understand and better grasp the concepts of Computer Science but also makes their transition in English smoother.

3. As coding and computer science have become a vital part of the economy I feel it is very important that all our fellow humans, no matter their language is included in the revolution. Moreover, in the upcoming years, larger and larger number of jobs are going to be created in the domain of coding and CS

BhashaX is trying to break the language barrier for all, interested in programming, necessary for future generations and make Computer Science inclusive for all.

Project BhashaX can provide support for a literally UNLIMITED number of languages, this also means that one can create his/her own language in BhashaX. For any language, BhashaX requires two files only, firstly the Environment file which anyone can create or reuse, and secondly the official transpiler. The environment file contains a map of important words and is used by the transpiler to translate syntax to the original language. This enables BhashaX language users to harness the utter power of the original language and its modules. Example Bhasha Python (BhashaPy) shall have syntax extremely similar to Python, and Bhasha Python transcompiler converts BhashaPy back to Python. One can also use packages like TensorFlow, pygame, Tkinter, etc in BhashaPy.

BhashaX’s main target is to provide the entire population on Earth a platform in which they can code in their mother tongue, be it Hindi, Mandarin, English, Spanish, Bengali, etc. Coding being one of the most important skills of the future shall be a necessity for most people. Currently, language emerges as a hurdle in people from underprivileged backgrounds from dwelling in Computer Science.

Therefore BhashaX can act as a helping hand for people of non-English background to coding. People tend to understand better and clearer in their native language, kickstarting their voyage in Computer Science.

Coding is one of the necessary skills of the 21st century, but for many people language emerges as a barrier to learning to code. BhashaX Brakes the barrier and thereby prepares those entering the workforce for the future of work with affordable and equitable digital skills with training, which would help them in employment opportunities of the future.

The project's first few versions have been released for all. People from different parts of the earth are trying and providing feedback for the platform.

Our solution is crucial for communities of color and helps advance antiracist and equitable digital workforces in the US, as we directly break the barriers of the language spoken by people of different colors, and help them code in their mother tongue and acing their capabilities.

The solution is innovative as it has the potential to allow programming in a literally UNLIMITED number of languages. And anyone in the world can code in their mother tongue language.

Our idea can be implemented in any programming language as well as any language which is spoken by people.

We already have two working versions available to the public namely BhashaJs and BhashaPy which can be found here.

Currently, the application can be used only for the developmental purpose and not actual production, as security testing of the project is underway

Within 3 days of the project, we had served more than 150+ enthusiasts from different countries. and language background. In the upcoming year I think to serve at least 1000+ people and by five years more than 30,000+ people. If we get support from this challenge we might be able to achieve to more than double targets at the same time.

In upcoming years, with the help of strategic partnerships and a large growing community, we would be able to cover more than 50 different languages and 1000+ beneficiaries.

 If we get support from this challenge we might be able to achieve more than double targets at the same time.

There are analytical APIs installed on the website. Also, I am planning to soon release a membership system on the website, which would help us to keep a track of user usage and how helpful the project is. Also, I have started a discord community where I am constantly coordinating with users for their feedback, upgrades, etc. 

Currently, I am the only member but a humongous number of family, friends, relatives and other acquaintances have come forward, and are eager to join the team.

I and interested team members have an extremely large network and bring together an extremely fine skill set. Also, many professionals are ready to provide us with mentorship. Overall the team is completely capable not only to complete targets but outperform them.

In the near future, the team would be open for all to become a part. And we would especially promote members from odd backgrounds to contribute to the team and community.

I firmly believe that it is very important for all to learn to program, as it shall drive the future, in order to do so we must immediately break language as a barrier. I am sure that the challenge and partner organizations can play a pivotal role in the project and give us a platform to serve the various communities for free.

The project would like to partner with each and every organization, there's a space for each organization, scholars, etc as the project spans across technology, Cybersecurity, Language, Behaviour, Skills, Economy. Distribution, etc.
