Somesh Kar

I'm good at making web apps and websites, and am currently interested in cross platform app development in strongly typed languages like Dart. Since the start of 2018, I've been working on a project which I co-founded called Boxware, which is a way for delivering desktop software in a browser tab. This went on to be an interviewee for the Y Combinator S2018 batch. I've made a way of using docker containers for this, and have made a custom container orchestrator using Go(a language for distributed systems made by Google). I also love Linux, Bash and everything that comes along with it and use it everyday, and if given the choice I'd gladly spend my life adminstering a server cluster :). When I was 11, I got my hands dirty with a Raspberry Pi and since then if I see anyone using any OS which isn't Unix-based( looking at Windows users) it gets me pretty annoyed.
