Divanshu Chauhan — Software Engineer and Builder

MS in Computer Science from ASU, GPA 3.889. SWE intern at Cloudflare and Vinext contributor. I write code on the edge during the day and ship side projects at night: a Telegram bot used by 300k people, a self-hosted logging tool, a class tracker for ASU.

Why this site exists

I build tools so software feels obvious at 2am, when you're stressed and want it to just work. Cloudflare taught me how a real edge platform behaves under load. Side projects taught me what people actually open more than once. I care about building things that are small, durable, and worth coming back to. I ship in public and write down what I learn along the way.

Notes I wrote down so I'd stop forgetting them: shipping, edge platforms, and the tools I reach for when something breaks at 2am.

    When to Use a VPS vs Cloudflare Workers in 2026

    Real numbers from 30+ projects: Alita Robot (300K users on Docker/Oracle free VPS) vs Clickfolio (Cloudflare Workers + D1 + R2 at $0). Cost comparison, database trade-offs, DDoS horror stories, and a decision framework for when to pick which architecture.

Selected work

Four projects I keep coming back to. Edge infrastructure at Cloudflare, a logging tool I built because Datadog priced me out, an AI portfolio generator, and the Telegram bot that taught me what shipping at scale really means.

A self-hosted logging tool I wrote because Datadog priced me out and the open-source alternatives wanted a PhD in Elasticsearch. PostgreSQL-backed, OTLP-compatible, real-time streaming, one Docker Compose file.
