Ashutosh Tiwari
I’m a software developer driven by curiosity and a love for well-crafted digital experiences. My journey began with a fascination for how great interfaces work, which naturally led me into the world of frontend engineering. I’ve since built high-performance, accessible UIs using modern tools like React, Next.js, and TypeScript — and as my skills grew, I expanded into fullstack development with Node.js and AI-driven workflows that solve practical, real-world problems.
At heart, I’m an indie developer who thrives on building thoughtful side projects. I care deeply about user experience, clean design, and maintainable architecture. Whether I’m shipping a solo project or collaborating on a team, I aim to create software that feels as good to use as it does to build — blending usability, performance, and clean code into every feature.
Outside of tech, I stay grounded through fitness and storytelling. I hit the gym almost daily, geek out on training science, and unwind with deep, narrative-driven games. These interests keep me sharp, focused, and creatively engaged — and I carry that same energy into every line of code I write.
