Code, Creativity & Everything I Learn

About

Hi! I’m Kishan, a 29-year-old Software Engineer based in the vibrant city of Surat, India. With over 7 years of professional experience in the ever-evolving world of web development, I currently navigate the tech landscape as a Freelance Developer, helping brands and individuals turn complex ideas into seamless digital realities.

My Technical Expertise

My journey as a self-taught developer has instilled in me a deep-seated curiosity and a “never stop learning” mindset. While I enjoy exploring the entire stack, I have specialized in building high-performance, scalable web applications using modern tools:

️Modern Web Stack

  • Next.js: I leverage Next.js to build SEO-friendly, blazing-fast React applications. I’m a firm believer in its power to bridge the gap between developer experience and end-user performance.
  • GraphQL: I advocate for efficient data fetching. Using GraphQL allows me to build flexible APIs where clients get precisely the data they need-nothing more, nothing less.
  • Web Accessibility (A11y): For me, coding isn’t just about functionality; it’s about inclusivity. I am dedicated to writing semantic HTML and ensuring that the digital experiences I create are usable by everyone, regardless of their abilities or the assistive technology they use.

WordPress Expert

Beyond modern JavaScript frameworks, I have a deep-rooted expertise in the WordPress ecosystem. I don’t just “use” WordPress; I extend it to its limits:

  • Custom Plugin Development: Building bespoke functionality tailored to specific business needs.
  • Theme Development: Creating lightweight, high-performance themes from scratch (no bloated page builders).
  • Custom Work: From complex API integrations to headless WordPress setups, I bridge the gap between CMS ease of use and enterprise-grade performance.

Community & Open Source

I believe that the heart of the tech industry beats in its community. I am deeply passionate about Open Source and the culture of collective improvement. You’ll often find me at industry events, either in the crowd taking notes or on stage sharing my experiences.

I’ve had the pleasure of being involved with:

  • WordCamp: Engaging with the WordPress community and sharing insights on modern web practices.
  • Laracasts: Contributing to and learning from one of the best developer ecosystems in the world.

The Philosophy of Sharing

“Knowledge increases by sharing but not by saving.“

This quote is the cornerstone of my professional life. Being self-taught, I am a direct product of the generosity of others who shared their knowledge online. To honour that, I have started offering free mentoring to aspiring developers.

I believe that actual growth occurs when we support one another. My goal is to lower the barrier to entry for others, helping them navigate the complexities of software engineering with the same support I once received.

I am always looking for exciting new projects, especially those that challenge me to think outside the box or contribute to the greater good of the web.
