About

I am a passionate product enthusiast and an open source evangelist who loves hacking, competitive programming and speaking at conferences. I am contributing to Drupal as a Google Summer of Code 2016 Intern for now. I mostly write PHP in my day-to-day adventures with Drupal but I love scripting as well, so I also keep contributing on projects built with Python or I start my own. I have sound working knowledge of full stack web development environment, from setup to scale. I love solving challenges on codechef and hackerearth. I mostly use C++ STL for my competitive coding. To be honest, competitive programming is the part I enjoy most as a developer because not only it clears my coding concepts but also teaches me about the approach which should be taken while solving these problem. Also, I have been developing websites since high school and have pretty good knowledge and experience of working with various CMS like Wordpress, Drupal, OSCommerce etc. Most of the code I have written can be found over my github profile. Some code is availiable in private repositories, so If you'd like to have a look at how I code when I am practicing, let me know and I'll share that with you :) . I am pretty comfortable with Git, bitbucket along with any other task management tool like Jira.

Google Summer of Code Intern

Apr 2016 – Sep 2016 · 5 mos

Successfully finished a project to create an API which will deal with merge conflicts in Drupal. Just like github, merge conflicts may occur in Drupal as well if two or more person modifies the same file from different workspaces and try to merge them in base file. The system wouldn't know which file's changes are to be kept. I will be using recursive 3 way merge for the solution purpose.
