About

Ever since I was a teenager, software development has been my passion. I still remember my initial days of programming when I was sitting in front of a desktop, with the basic cartridge loaded in, making it print "Hello! Kunal" for the very first time. As I went through the BASIC tutorial, it was almost magic, being able to get the computer to do whatever I wanted, just by typing in these funny little symbols, limited only by my own imagination and ingenuity. Throughout my high school, I latched on to any ideas for projects I could get, moving from "Hello World!" all the way to a simple GUI application using JAVA. I learned JAVA, then MySQL, tearing through any books I could find on anything remotely related to software development. I was insatiable. This passion carried me through my education at Gujarat Technological University. Here there were more resources available to me than I ever could have imagined as a teenager. I studied ANDROID, WEB and BACK END development and also new languages like KOTLIN, JAVASCRIPT and different frameworks like React.js, Vue.js, Node.js and Express.js, all with pretty much the same fascination that drove me as a teenager. And it was here that I learned truly how much there was yet to learn. So, now, in industry, this passion remains with me. There's certainly a lot more to learn, yet more problems to solve, and yet more to build because we can grow only by learning. And for this I'm very grateful.
