I’m Pranav, a B.Tech student with a thing for computers,
electronics, and building stuff that actually works. I
love diving into tech, experimenting with hardware, and
creating clean, functional software. Most of my time
goes into exploring Linux, and understanding how systems
behave under the hood. If it’s something I can break,
tweak, or automate—I’m in. I’m currently building my
skills through experiments, and a lot of hands-on
learning.
