Niraj Kumar

Ever since I was a kid, I've wanted to be an inventor and solve real life problems while creating amazing stuff on the side. I'm passionate about building products that help myself and others be more productive and live a simple and meaningful life. I've been writing code for more than a decade now, and it has never stopped feeling like magic.

I build open source projects and write blog posts about coding, productivity, and life. Occasionally, I do live coding streams on YouTube. I also create a webcomic called Codebase, capturing the quirks and humor of programming and developer life. From time to time, I make some svg art, interactivity experiments on 100.nirajkumar.space.

Outside of programming, I enjoy football, illustrations, music, photography and travelling. I post photos on this page. I also love reading novels and philosophy. Here is my media consumption list. Also, in case you are interested, here are the hardware/software I use.

I currently live in India and am working on building a sustainable income source through my work as an indie developer.

If you wish to know more about me, remember this: "Not every story is meant to be told, and mine is one of them".
