Building native Windows desktop applications in modern C++ and WinUI, leveraging AI workflows to engineer high-performance systems.
Background, engineering philosophy, and self-taught systems development.
I am a hobbyist developer based in Kolkata, India, actively learning software development and building practical projects with AI assistance. Coming from a non-technical academic background, I learn through hands-on experimentation: understanding how things work under the hood and turning ideas into functioning software.
My main interest is exploring native Windows desktop development in modern C++ (C++20, C++/WinRT) and WinUI 3, along with supporting backend services and cross-platform tools. Outside of programming, I occasionally dabble in 3D modeling in Autodesk Maya and digital design once in a blue moon purely as a casual hobby.
Exploring C++20, C++/WinRT, and WinUI 3
Building with TypeScript, Node.js, and Docker
Tools across Windows, Android, and Web
Core languages, native runtimes, backend APIs, infrastructure, and creative tools.
Low-level systems programming and modern typed languages
Direct platform integration, hardware acceleration, and UI runtimes
Lightweight APIs, data persistence, and session security
Containerization, Linux administration, and deployment pipelines
Mobile applications, browser extensions, and automation bots
Casual 3D asset modeling, design, and digital media production
Native Windows applications, distributed cloud services, and cross-platform clients.
Native Windows 11 client for self-hosted Halo media servers. Implements hardware-accelerated video rendering via libmpv in a DirectX composition swapchain, local offline downloads, and library synchronization.
A multi-platform music streaming player with a native Windows desktop app (WASAPI audio output, 10-band EQ), an Android app (Media3), a responsive web client, and Discord voice playback, integrated with Magneto Account Sync.
Windows utility that publishes media and desktop application activity to Discord using Windows Global System Media Transport Controls (GSMTC) with an optional Chromium companion extension.
An invite-only identity and integration platform providing single sign-on (SSO) across all my private and public projects, powering user accounts and connected applications.
A cross-platform live weather ecosystem spanning a React web application, a native Android client in Kotlin, and a multi-server Discord bot. Delivers global forecasts, animated radar, air quality metrics, and Magneto Account Sync.
Native Windows file download utility in C++, featuring segmented multi-threaded downloads, bandwidth throttling, and local file verification.

Practical background, independent software learning, and personal projects.
Exploring software development through hands-on experimentation and practical projects. Focused on building console applications in C/C++ and creating desktop UI applications with the help of AI tools, while learning core programming concepts.
Working with visual and media tools for creative exploration. Creating graphics, editing videos, and experimenting with 3D modeling as a personal hobby alongside studies and projects.
Buying and reselling consumer electronics such as mobile phones, TVs, and home appliances. Started as a pocket-money activity and achieved strong sales during the COVID lockdown period.
