What it is
Catalog Builder streamlines the creation of professional wholesale product catalogs from Excel spreadsheets. It extracts product data and images from XLSX files, provides AI-powered translation between Chinese and English, and exports polished PDF catalogs with fillable order forms.
The problem
Wholesale businesses need professional product catalogs but creating them from spreadsheet data is manual, error-prone, and especially difficult with multilingual content.
What I built
Built a full-stack tool that processes Excel spreadsheets (with image extraction), AI-translates content between Chinese and English, manages multi-session workflows with auto-save, and generates professional PDF catalogs using a hybrid ReportLab + PyMuPDF pipeline.
What happened
Functional catalog builder with complete Excel-to-PDF pipeline, session management, and AI translation. Dockerized for easy deployment.
