System.Info

> Computer Science student at KIET Group of Institutions (2024–2028), building things that actually work at scale.

> I live in two worlds: Full Stack for scalable platforms, and C/CUDA/Assembly for the metal underneath.

> I don't chase trends. I write code that compiles fast, runs faster, and doesn't need a second explanation.

> Currently focused on GSoC 2026, adding multi-protocol support to API Dash — because WebSocket, MQTT, and gRPC deserve first-class treatment in a dev tool.

[SYS_EXEC] OT + CRDT sync engines from scratch

An offline-first collaborative planning board built entirely in Go — real-time multiplayer kanban with a Google-Docs-style collaborative editor inside every card. Both sync engines — Operational Transformation and a from-scratch RGA CRDT — are hand-implemented and fuzz-verified, and the browser client is Go compiled to WebAssembly. A single event-loop hub owns all document state, with no mutexes on the hot path.

Official Author & Maintainer of CUDA bindings for D

While implementing unified memory, I needed cuMemPrefetchAsync, but found our bindings (derelict-cuda) were deprecated. I built bindbc-cuda from scratch as a modern replacement. Now I am the official author and maintainer.
