Software Developer

Hi 🙋‍♂️, I am Aditya. I am full-stack developer from Mumbai. I am a graduate in Software Engineering from Arizona State University. I write about niche technical topics after extensively researching about them so that you don't have to! I breakdown & reverse-engineer complex architecture and workflows so that indie developers could make an informed decision about using them. I also run u/redditspeedbot on Reddit.
