A visual portfolio builder — the canvas you edit is the site you ship.
Three products I design and build independently. All are live and still evolving — professional work is in the experience section below.
A visual portfolio builder — the canvas you edit is the site you ship.
A no-code portfolio builder: pick one of eight templates, edit on a live canvas, publish to a URL or export a static site you own.
A television that never stopped broadcasting 2010.
Eleven channels airing right now, whether or not the tab is open. You cannot pause, scrub or pick — you can change the channel, and that is all.
On-device computer vision for calmer feeds.
A Chrome extension that filters distracting and explicit content on Instagram and TikTok using a vision transformer running entirely in the browser — no cloud calls, no images leaving the machine.
Roles, the products they shipped, and the engineering problems worth mentioning.
Six areas that describe the kind of problems I work on, rather than a list of tools with progress bars attached.
Design systems and interaction-heavy UI, built responsive-first and accessible by default rather than retrofitted.
Component boundaries that hold up as a product grows — reusable hooks, feature-scoped modules, and a structure people can navigate.
Server state separated from UI state, with cache keys designed up front. Optimistic updates where the interaction should feel instant.
Live UI over WebSockets — shared connections, subscription hooks, and reconnection logic that lives in one place instead of every feature.
Rendering strategy first: windowing, pagination and caching for interfaces that carry more data than fits on a screen.
Browser extensions, client-side ML inference, and interaction models that don't have an established pattern to copy.
Setup guides, gotchas, and things I wish I'd known earlier.
Frontend engineer based in Kathmandu, Nepal. I enjoy building product interfaces where design, engineering and interaction meet.
What keeps me interested is turning a real problem into something people can actually use — the part where a vague frustration becomes an interface someone opens every day. That is the same instinct behind the client work, the products I build on my own, and the experiments.
Currently focused on React, Next.js, TypeScript, product architecture, and experimenting with AI-powered interfaces.
