Introduction
Hello, my name is Ritik.
I'm a software engineer and technical writer based in India. I build full-stack applications and publish in-depth articles on software engineering, AI systems, and developer tooling.
With a curiosity-driven approach, I enjoy breaking down complex systems into simple, maintainable solutions — and then writing about it so others can learn too.
