About
I'm in my final year of Computer Science at Shiv Nadar University Chennai. I like working on backend systems and low level programming.
Outside of that I take part in CP contests and CTFs, watch anime, read a lot, and drink more coffee than I probably should.

Selected work
ScheduleMaker
marauders_scheduler
Timetable generator that solves around 20 constraints across students, faculty and halls, then lets you drag lectures around to fix the rest. Takes its data straight from CourseOffering.
StockLens
stocklens
NSE equity research tool I built for my own investing. Pulls prices and fundamentals on a cron, computes CAGR and drawdowns, screens on fundamentals.
Clox & Jlox
interpreter_lox
Two interpreters for the Lox language, one tree-walking in Java and one bytecode VM in C. Profiled the C one with Valgrind and got about 20% faster.
Traffic Sniffer
traffic_sniffer
Packet capture tool in Rust. Parses Ethernet, IPv4/IPv6, TCP and UDP headers live on every interface at once, one thread each, out to CSV.
Fou
fou_text_editor
Vim-like text editor in C. Piece table underneath so big files stay fast, plus undo/redo and raw TTY handling for keyboard and mouse input.
Welt
welt
Webnovel reader that scrapes chapters and stores them for offline reading. Android app, desktop app and a small Flask backend.
