Computer Science student at Chitkara University, graduating 2027. Currently figuring things out one project at a time.
I spend most of my time building backend systems, deploying things to AWS that probably cost more than they should, and maintaining an Arch Linux setup that breaks whenever I feel too confident. Writing code in Java mostly, but actively trying to diversify into Rust and Go because vendor lock-in extends to programming languages too.
Also write about this stuff occasionally on my blog when procrastination takes a productive turn.
// How most of my projects actually go
try {
implementFeature();
deployToProduction();
} catch (Exception e) {
panicGoogle();
fixInProd();

Building scalable backend systems • Learning systems programming with Rust • Exploring distributed systems patterns • Contributing to open source projects that solve actual problems
Philosophy: Question the default. Break things in development. Learn from production failures. Build something better.

Open to collaborations, technical discussions, or debating why most "best practices" are just cargo cult programming.
