Welcome to my site!

I’m a software developer at WarpBuild, building and breaking things for fun and profit.

This is my little corner on the internet.

  • I write about my journey and learnings as a developer in my blog. It’s a home to my ramblings, experiments, experiences and sometimes wisdom (when I’m feeling pretentious enough).

  • I like photography. I’m not very good at it but that doesn’t stop me from sharing my clicks in my gallery.

I go by kretaceous or abhijit-hota on the internet.

You can find my Resume here.
