By day I make heavy data feel light. By night I build the open-source tools I spent too long waiting for.

02 · The day job

06:00 – 18:00 IST

Frontend SDE-1 at SellerGeni, on an AI-powered Amazon advertising platform. Before that, two years freelancing, taken end to end.

Now2026
SellerGeni. Dashboards where the data is heavy and the interaction still has to feel light.
Before2024 – 2026
Freelance on Fiverr. 20+ production apps scoped, architected and shipped alone. Every one rated five stars.
How I workAlways
Ship real things. Sweat the easing curves. Respect reduced-motion. Performance is a feature, not a phase at the end.

The handover

Good interfaces don't shout. They respond: a hover that lands in forty milliseconds, an easing curve tuned by eye, a layout that breathes. The details aren't polish. They're the product.

18:40One laptop closes.

18:41The other one opens.

Everything below this line was built after that minute.

03 · The night work

18:00 – 06:00 IST

Four open-source tools and 1.5k+ stars, all of it after hours. None of it was planned. Each one started as something I needed on a Tuesday night.

WhyThe short answer
The tool I wanted either didn't exist or existed badly. That is the entire reason, every time.
Reach1.5k+ stars
Across four repos, plus a place in the Vercel Open Source Program and packages other people's products now depend on.
OpenApache-2.0 · MIT
All of it public, all of it documented, all of it free to use. Sponsors are what keep it that way.

What clients wrote, unedited

Avijit has done an outstanding job, keeping me informed at every stage and delivering a truly pixel perfect implementation from the Figma design file that I sent him. Not only that, but he also optimized the website for mobile and tablet devices without being asked, which was a great bonus. I could not recommend him enough.
