Prashant Sengar

I have a creative mind and a passion for developing programs.

I am an Open Source Enthusiast and lead the community Open Source Society Una.
I work as a freelancer and love to create products which are used by people. The projects that I created are now used by 10,000+ people all over the world!

My area of expertise is backend web development but I have worked on various other tech stack including blockchain, front-end development and Android application development.

I love to participate in Hackathons and have participated and won a few including Smart India Hackathon 2020, Matic Prize at HackJaipur 2020, Hacksagon 2020. I like to hackathonize my life - that's the word I have for having long sessions of focused work ( I am sorry, James Clear).

Recently, I created a keylogger that remains discreet, sends emails to the user and can be turned off from the web. I used Python language in this project and created an API to turn the keylogger on/off or to delete it.
