== About Me ==
I'm the co-founder/CEO at [https://codecrafters.io/ CodeCrafters] (YC S22).


I'm from India, and love [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computers advanced realizations of Turing machines]. I'm currently pursuing my Bachelors degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Amrita University, India.
We make programming challenges like Build your own Git, Redis, SQLite. You can build these tools from scratch, in any programming language.


Though I like exploring varied technology domains once in a while, my major areas of interest revolve around the web. I am an avid FOSS enthusiast, and am happy to have started contributing this year.
