Computer Science undergraduate at NIT Hamirpur and an Apache Committer. I'm a developer focused on backend development, Linux, system design, and open-source. I enjoy designing robust, scalable systems and occasionally explore UI/UX design to balance engineering with creativity.

• I have worked on multiple releases of Apache Fory - v0.15.0 to v0.17.0 including its first ever major release v1.0.0. The framework is widely used by companies like Ant Group, Alibaba Group, ByteDance (company behind Seedance models, TikTok and which owns the video editing tool you must know "CapCut") and more..
• Currently developing something big.
• I'm currently working on the development of an official service/management system of NIT Hamirpur under its Estate Office.
• I'm currently contributing to the next release of Apache Fory.

• Learn Agentic AI.
• Learn core MCP architecture.
• Diving deeper into System Design and Linux Internals.
• Exploring advanced distributed systems patterns.
• Learn advanced Go.
• Learn Data Structures and Algos.

Here's where I'm implementing these learnings to learn them consistenly while building stuff.

• Advanced Go and System Design - Working on the cms-web, it's core is written in go and also migrating the laca-web from nodejs SSR to Gin. I felt like the site's architecture in Nodejs was likely slower, and migrating it to Gin would increase the performance, when the site goes live again for the new batch.
• Exploring advanced distributed systems patterns and AI Infrastructure - I'm a regular contributor to the Apache Fory, an open source serialization framework, mainly contributing to the Go, JavaScript and Dart runtime of the framework. It teaches me a lot about how distributed systems, microservices actually communicate, and how the big systems actually scale and improve their performance. Currently working on the grpc service stub generation in go. Would turn goth into a grpc server which uses stubs generated by code written in a official library by me.

• stanza - A structure-based, resistance-aware pipeline that designs and screens small molecules against covalent and steric resistance mutations. feat. Claude: Life Sciences Hackathon.
• apache/fory - JIT based serialization framework under the ASF Foundation, my favourite spot to do open source. Beats much of the other serialization frameworks by a huge margins.
• cms-web - an official service/management system of NIT Hamirpur for construction cell complaints under its Estate Office.
• laca-web - official website of NIT Hamirpur for registration under the LA/CA (electives) courses.
• goth - a production grade go authentication microservice (in development).
• The Nerds Community - a community to create a peer of like-minds. (the nerds).
• ProtPocket - a browser-native computational drug discovery platform built on AlphaFold data, with pocket detection, docking and mutation impact prediction.
• vicy - personal anywhere on my machine voice-to-text. tired of typing prompts to my claude code.
• gothctl - a cli tool built using cobra and viper to handle the goth microservice.
• appteam-web - official website of App Team, the core club of CSE department, NIT Hamirpur.
• cbot - an AI-assistant on your cli, made for nerds who don't want to leave their terminal for getting answers to their queries.
• lowkey - a p2p and e2e chat application, chat one time, no digital footprints left.
• Portfolio - my personal portfolio site.
• gh-widget - a custom github contributions widget chart for android, but the cool way.
• DezNov - a space to share your projects with the community.
• cortex(in development) - memory brain for your AI agents, it never forgets just keeps iterating, so you don't have to.
• (Find my best work in pins)

When I'm not at the terminal, you can find me:

• Listening to music
• Designing merch (some of my designs have over 100+ prints!)
