i am akhil,

i build software that i love to use!

A developer who finds joy in fixing the problems I face in real life with software. I am always looking forward to learning new technologies and improve on ones I already know.

Some of the stuff that I have built

Spacelearn

You forget 90% of what you learn in a week. Use spaced learning to combat that. Create cards for every 4 study sessions and be at the top of your game!

Motivation

I was studying for the KEAM, which is the entrance exam for engineering colleges in Kerala, when I came across spaced learning.

For a couple days I manually kept track of what I learned and when I should revise it. I thought it would be a good idea to automate this and that's how SpaceLearn was born.

I learned a lot about React, Node and PosgreSQL and testing the backend API with testing tools like Chai and Mocha. I also learned how to deploy a full stack app to Heroku. Heroku shut down it's free tier a while ago so you got to wait a bit to see the app in action. :)

The tech stack

Motivation

Being an Engineering student, I have supplies.

I had a close call once where I didn't know the supplementary registration was open and I had to register at the last moment. This is to prevent further risque moves
