The short version
I'm Nikhil — a self-taught builder from Mumbai. Bitten by the tech bug a while back (radioactive, presumably), and these days I'm deep in Python and AI — learning in public and shipping real, live things to the internet while I'm at it.
What keeps me hooked is how short the distance from “idea” to “it's live” has become — one person with the right tools can go a surprisingly long way now. AI is a big part of how I build, and I'm quietly curious about where it takes fintech next.
With great tooling comes great shipping speed.
Upgrade log
Same guy, better gear — keep scrolling through the versions.
The Curious One
It started with questions. How do websites work? What actually happens when you hit Enter? Went down the rabbit hole — willingly, and never really came back.

- late nights
- rabbit holes
The Learner
Enter Python. Loops, functions, little scripts that actually did things. The mask starts to fit — and the questions start turning into answers.
- python
- logic
- persistence
The Builder
Shipping era. Real sites, live on the internet, AI as co-pilot — two products up and running. And this suit? This is just version one.
- AI tools
- shipping
- two live sites
Side quests
Fun little things I've spun up and left running on the internet — built with AI, live right now. Not the main story, just the warm-up laps.
Currently
- Learning: Python
- Studying: AI fundamentals
- Building: small real products, with AI
- Next: shipping more
