I'm a B.Tech Information Technology student at IIIT Bhopal who enjoys building complete software systems rather than isolated features. I like understanding how things work under the hood—from networking and operating-system concepts to backend architecture, machine learning, and distributed systems.
I believe the best way to learn engineering is to build projects from scratch, evaluate them properly, and continuously improve them instead of repeatedly starting new tutorial projects.
