Android & Kotlin Multiplatform developer who also builds developer tools and system-level utilities.
I started with Android in Java in 2021, long before AI coding assistants were part of everyday development. I learned to build apps by hand, and today I work in an AI-assisted way: the AI speeds up the work, while the design, the review and the final call stay with me. I'm doing my MCA at MNNIT Allahabad (2024 – 2027).
Most of what I build starts with something that annoyed me: a campus proxy that kept breaking, a timetable PDF I didn't want to retype, a Neovim setup that took too long to configure.
| Project | What it is | Stack |

The foundation is hand-written. My first Android apps (2021) and Neox at Doodlebook (2022), where I was the only Android developer, were built without AI tools: UI design, API integration, ExoPlayer tuning, debugging on low-end devices. That's why I understand what the code I ship is actually doing.
Today my workflow is AI-assisted, and I stay in the driver's seat:
- I own the design. Architecture, module boundaries, data models and API contracts come from me, and I write them down before any code is generated (see the
docs/folders in LumosRGB and ProxyMan). - I give precise instructions. I tell the AI what to build, which constraints apply, and what "done" looks like, instead of asking it to "make an app".
- I review everything it writes. I can debug, rewrite or throw away any part of the output.
- I verify the result. Builds, tests and runs on a real device decide whether something ships.
AI-assisted, not AI-generated: it makes me faster, and the engineering decisions remain mine.
