Shiv Shanmugam

Student & builder from India

I am a high schooler building a few early stage initiatives on the side. Mainly on the editor but I occasionally visit the design board and write on what intrigues me.

I compose my applications with particular importance on code quality and readability. As I am currently experimenting with Rust & Typescript, I primarily build web and command line applications.

Currently diving into content creation with CS Explained , where I post bite sized computer science content.
