I've worked on a variety of projects, from simple websites to complex web applications. Here are a few of my favorites.

Solana C++ SDK

Solana C++ SDK

Active
September 2025 - Present

The Solana C++ SDK is a lightweight toolkit for building native Solana programs and clients in C++. It offers abstractions for keypair generation, instruction creation, and transaction handling to help DePIN and system developers build faster with native performance.

SolixDB

SolixDB

Active
March 2025 - Present

SolixDB is a Solana-native indexing service that streams and backfills on-chain data directly into your own database. It provides plug-and-play schema templates, reliable historical backfills, and real-time updates to help DePIN, DeFi, and analytics teams index less and ship faster.

Hackathons

Building excites me

Participating in hackathons has allowed me to solve real-world problems, rapidly prototype ideas, and collaborate with talented developers worldwide.

  • C

    CVMU Hackathon 2.0

    Gujarat, India

    Built a cross-platform application named ExpenShare that tracks expenses, supports group-based expense splitting, and automatically detects transactional messages (like SMS) for real-time logging into a secure backend system. The app streamlines financial collaboration and was awarded Best Data Hack.

  • C

    CVMU Hackathon 3.0

    Gujarat, India

    Developed PLUTUS, an automated crypto investment platform that uses dollar-cost averaging (DCA) for smarter portfolio management. The platform integrates with the Solana blockchain to ensure secure transactions, and features real-time market updates, token launch alerts, and a user-centric investment dashboard.

    Solana Breakout

    Online

    zkdrops is a Solana-based dApp that enables private, verifiable token airdrops using zero-knowledge proofs. Built during Solana Breakout to explore scalable, privacy-first on-chain distribution.

    Solana Mobile Hackathon

    Online

    A lightweight protocol for renting verifiable micro-functions from smartphones, enabling trust-minimized execution and crypto-native monetization. Think of it as AWS Lambda meets mobile DePIN — phones earn yield by performing tasks like uptime checks, presence proofs, and data collection, while dApps pay per use in SOL/SPL. Includes a mobile SDK, smart contract suite, and global device registry.

  • A

    Athena Hacker House

    New Delhi, India

    Built an overengineered swap function on the Monad testnet. Focused on creating a robust, feature-rich solution with smart contract logic, edge-case handling, and optimized execution for testing and demonstration purposes.

  • E

    ETH Global

    New Delhi, India

    Built a next-generation automated market maker (AMM) on an EVM chain during ETH Global Delhi. Implemented multi-stablecoin swap logic, torus-based concentrated liquidity, and high-performance smart contracts. Focused on capital-efficient trading strategies, robust edge-case handling, and demonstrating advanced AMM mechanics in a hackathon setting.

  • E

    ETH Online

    Online

    Built a privacy-first Solana dApp during ETH Online, focusing on scalable user interactions and zero-knowledge proofs for secure data sharing.

  • S

    Solana Cypherpunk

    Online

    Currently developing SolixDB for Solana Cypherpunk, a Solana-native indexing service that streams and backfills on-chain data into user databases. Implementing plug-and-play schema templates, reliable historical backfills, and real-time updates to help DePIN, DeFi, and analytics teams index less and ship faster.
