Hi, I'm Ankit — a self-taught software developer and a mountain soul.

I write code with purpose — mostly using React and Node.js. But for me, it's not just about choosing the “better” technology. It's about showing up fully, doing my best every day, and growing with every challenge.

I never took formal programming classes. Instead, I learned on my own from reading docs, blogs, and spending late nights watching YouTube tutorials. This unconventional path shaped how I think, solve problems, and push myself beyond limits.

I live a balanced life, both in mind and body. When life gets noisy or I feel low on energy, I pack my backpack and head to the mountains. Hiking and trekking through quiet trails recharges me like nothing else.

Outside of work, I enjoy trying different hobbies to make the most of my free time. It keeps me refreshed and often sparks new ideas. I've also trained in psychology to better understand myself and others — especially to explore the question: “Why do people do the things they do?” I believe understanding this is the first step to creating meaningful work, because real impact starts with empathy.
