About

A bit of background on who I am, what I do, and why I started this blog. Nothing too serious, just a little intro to the person typing away behind the scenes.

Hi there

I'm Jigar, a software engineer from Rajkot, India. I have a passion for all things Javascript, and I enjoy building web applications. I work mainly with Typescript, React, NodeJS, NestJs, and Mongodb.

I started this blog as a way to document and share stuff I have learned and found useful as a software engineer. Building and writing things down is a great way for me to solidify my understanding of new concepts and ideas. I hope my blog could be a helpful resource for fellow devs who interested in web dev, and related technologies.

When I'm not busy crafting digital wonders, you'll find me immersed in the captivating world of anime, where every episode is a journey and every story is an adventure waiting to unfold! .

I would be highly appreciated if you could leave your comments and thoughts on what I have written .

A few major over-engineering-changes from the original repo:

  • Upgrading to React 18, Next 14 (Using App router).
  • Adopting Typescript, committing with Conventional Commits.
  • Monitoring site with Umami website analytics.
  • Theming in dark mode with Github dark dimmed colors for better contrast.
  • Making a lot of changes to the UI, new homepage design, adding ProfileCard, CareerTimeline components, adding /friends, /snippets, /resume(coding...) page, etc.
