Computer Science undergraduate at NIT Hamirpur and an Apache Committer. I'm a developer focused on backend development, distributed systems infrastructure, 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 working on something big.
- I'm currently contributing to the next release of Apache Fory.

- I maintain these official services which drives our daily campus activities - cms-web and estate office site.
- Learn Agentic AI.
- Diving deeper into System Design and Linux Internals.
- Exploring advanced distributed systems patterns.
Here's where I'm implementing these learnings to learn them consistenly while building stuff.
- Distributed Systems - Implementing Raft consensus algorithm on goth to handle token revocation logic across multiple goth instances.
- 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.
- wisp - It's the most silent, light-weight resident of kernel. hacks your system, giving it AI's intelligence from the kernel level. Only shipped for Linux yet. No plans to make it open source yet.
- 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. It would serve around 1000+ users including faculties, wardens, centreheads and non-teaching staff of NIT Hamirpur.
- laca-web - official website of NIT Hamirpur for registration under the LA/CA (electives) courses. Completed around 1000+ students registration for the LA/CA 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 - memory brain for your AI agents, it never forgets just keeps iterating, so you don't have to.
