Hey there, Visitor!

This is Kushagra Sharma

I leverage Linux to craft efficient applications and automate workflows with Rust, machine learning, Next.js, Actix-Web or Django etc... I'm always up for a tech challenge, because what's a little sleep deprivation and existential crisis when you're building something amazing? Let's build solutions that are functional, efficient, and a joy to create; Before we all burn out.

>

Passionate about Unix philosophy; Linux is not just an OS, it’s a mindset. Arch 🖤

>

I don’t work for the sake of it; I build what I believe in, I code what I love.

>

Fluent in full-stack web, fluent in system-level Rust; Bridging UX and low-level elegance.

>

Every project is an attack surface, every bug a zero-day waiting to be found.

>

I see the world in packets, system calls, and unexplored vectors.

>

Always reverse-engineering the known to create the unknown.

Your framework? My playground. Your stack? Just bytes.

A personal changelog of bugs fixed, features added, and sanity occasionally lost.

Early 2025

Turns Out I Was Searching, Not Lost

  • After a few years that felt wasted, I realized they gave me something deeper—perspective.
  • I’d explored so much—tech, tools, ideas—and somewhere in that chaos, I started understanding myself.
  • Figured out what I enjoy, what drains me, and most importantly—what I want to do.
  • Those silent years? I call them soul-searching. Friends would ask why I disappeared—I just smiled and said “figuring stuff out.” I kinda did.
  • 2025 started differently—routine kicked in: morning runs, bodywork in the evening, regular chats with friends, less isolation.
  • That structure gave me mental clarity. The fog lifted, and for the first time, I could see the bigger picture—the direction I wanted.
  • I wasn't lost. I was just trying a hundred things to see what sticks, absorbing ideas, philosophies, and even contradictions.
  • January came, and I was finally ready—confident, clear, and grounded.
  • Applied for jobs for the first time ever (outside freelance), and it worked.
  • Sailed through tech rounds—clean, sharp answers, no noise.
  • Final interview was with the CEO—looked at my resume, paused, then asked: “Are you into hacking?” I knew I was in.
  • Got the job. Worked. Quit. (Story for another time, with popcorn.)
  • Now I’m writing my story with full clarity—not chasing noise, just building what matters.

2024

Lost In Terminal

  • Everyone was chasing internships, and I was chilling in my cave, tuning Linux like a monk.
  • Dived deep into hacking, networking, and books like Professional Linux Kernel Development and Windows Internals—because why not confuse both halves of my brain.
  • Felt like I was everywhere—Linux configs, B.Tech exams, personal projects, unfinished assignments… and somehow, all of them were on fire.
  • Started thinking I was good at this stuff—then reality said, “Hold my man page.”
  • The more I learned, the more I realized how little I actually knew.
  • Confidence? Gone. Perspective? Warped. Meanwhile, people with less knowledge were bagging internships, and I was debugging my own life.
  • And yeah, went through some personal stuff too—the kind every guy does but no one talks about.
  • It wasn’t a productive year, but it was real. A messy year of overlearning, overthinking, and under-doing.

2023 & Early 2024

Tried Everything, Mastered None (But Learned a Lot)

  • Got curious about visuals—entered game dev with Unity and C#.
  • Built a simple Android game: dodge-the-falling-stuff style.
  • Tried Unreal Engine on Arch with 8GB RAM—ran, but barely.
  • Switched back to Unity; lighter, smoother, more beginner-friendly.
  • Tinkered with Blender—learned that 3D art is a whole new beast.
  • Explored Android app dev and Flutter alongside.
  • Also read a lot of books on various topis not just releated to tech
  • Didn’t ship much, but learned a lot about graphics, game logic, and cross-platform dev.

2022 & Early 2023

The Year I Knew... Kind Of

  • By now, I had explored so much tech that I could talk about almost anything—from React to regex, from Zig to zero-trust. I wasn’t just learning anymore—I was arguing with myself at 2 AM explaining things out loud like a solo podcast no one asked for.
  • Social battery? Dead. College classrooms? Mostly silent from my end. I had fun moments, though—like giving people nicknames they’ll probably carry to their graves. Small wins.
  • This was the year I finally got into the Node/React/Express hype train. Built todo apps, blog platforms, e-commerce prototypes—the full portfolio-of-shame lineup. Why? Because everyone around me was doing it. Was I into it? Not really. Especially not into `node_modules`, which felt like it wanted to install the internet.
  • Somewhere in this chaos, I stumbled upon Rust and Zig. Rust looked sexy. Also terrifying. It was like meeting a really smart person you want to befriend but don’t know how to approach.
  • September: Smart India Hackathon happened. Went to Ahmedabad to solve an actual ISRO problem. Used Django like a boss—it delivered. But we lost. Why? Not because of the tech stack. We just couldn’t math the satellite trajectory. Space is hard. No regrets. Forgot to even flex about it on LinkedIn. Peak introvert move.
  • Got my hands dirty with Rust—barely. Touched it. Poked it. Ran away. Also flirted a bit more with Flutter. Still not exclusive with any framework, but getting there.

2021

Peak Exploration and Mild Identity Crisis

  • Started hopping Linux distros like it was a personality trait. Landed on Garuda—flashy, colorful, oddly comforting. My first taste of the Arch world, and yeah, I liked it. Not because it was flashy (okay, maybe a little), but because it *just worked*.
  • Then came the “minimalism” phase. Out with the dragons, in with Manjaro KDE. Still Arch-based, but with less neon and more "I know what I'm doing" vibes. This was the OS that stuck around for a bit.
  • Somewhere between distro-hopping and tweaking KDE themes, I fell deep into Django. I wasn’t just building CRUD apps—I was making generics my side hustle. It clicked hard. It was fun. It was elegant. I felt like a backend monk.
  • Meanwhile, I was also messing with every tech I could get my hands on. I wanted to be a Flutter dev. And a full-stack dev. Also desktop apps? Yes. Cross-platform? Sign me up. Blockchain? Let’s decentralize my to-do list. AI/ML? Obviously.
  • Basically, I wanted to be ten different devs at once. The raw energy was real—the brain couldn’t sit still. Every new tech looked like a new universe, and I wanted to colonize them all. It was chaotic, exciting, and very, very confusing.

2020

🚀 The Year of Glorious Exploration

  • COVID classes were technically happening, but I was busy running terminals. Zoom calls? Background noise at best.
  • Spent the year jumping between shiny tech—programming languages, frameworks, CLI tools—most didn’t survive past “hello world.”
  • No roadmaps. No end goals. Just raw, chaotic exploration. Made zero sense… and somehow made all the sense.
  • Structure was overrated. I learned more by messing around than I ever did from any class.

Late 2019 & Early 2020

The Spark (and the Stack Overflow addiction)

  • Moved to Jaipur — first time out of the nest, landed in a PG with more mosquitoes than square footage.
  • Enrolled in Resonance — JEE prep by day, existential crises by night.
  • Juggled 12th boards and coaching like a poorly written multithreaded program — deadlocks were inevitable.
  • Accidentally installed Linux. Never looked back. Still don’t know how GRUB works, but we move.
  • Typed my first lines in Python — instantly decided I was going to automate everything, including my sleep schedule (which didn’t work).
  • Switched to C — because I thought segmentation faults were character-building.
  • Stumbled across the word "kernel" — didn’t get it, but instinctively wanted to hack it one day.

Before 2019

  • Just the usual spark—science fascinated me, and my thinking always followed that thread.
