Hey, I'm Nakshatra
Part-time software engineer, full-time overthinker with a questionable sleep schedule and an unhealthy relationship with side projects.
The Essentials
When I'm not debugging code, I'm usually overanalyzing cats' behavior like it's a new programming language. My dream retirement plan is to open a café that serves good espresso and bad advice — preferably surrounded by cafe racers and too many books I'll "read someday."
I've built websites, broken a few, and somehow ended up understanding how humans and computers interact better than how humans and humans do. Currently obsessed with AI, design, and finding that perfect balance between "productive" and "just vibing."
If you ever catch me staring into the void, I'm probably thinking about how to make tech feel a little more human — or whether I should get another cat.
What I Actually Do
Software Development
Building fast and stable applications that don't make people want to throw their laptops out the window. From idea to deployment and a little too much time tweaking animations.
AI Integration
Making AI tools that actually feel useful — LLMs, chatbots, and experimenting with what's possible when you mix code with curiosity.
Machine Learning
From data preprocessing to model deployment. I enjoy turning complex algorithms into practical applications.
Design Systems
Creating consistency in chaos: components, patterns, and making sure things look good without overthinking it (maybe a little overthinking).
Currently Into
- Building AI tools that feel less like talking to a robot and more like having a slightly competent assistant
- Perfecting my espresso game (current ratio: 1:2.5, if you care)
- Cafe racers and the eternal debate of form vs. function (spoiler: both)
- Trying to convince myself that minimalist design isn't just me being lazy
- Understanding why my cat stares at walls (still no answers)
You'll find my nerdy stuff scattered around here — experiments, code, ramblings, and things I thought would look cool on the internet.
