AshishK doesn't do boilerplate.

I build because templates bore me. Systems fascinate me. And polish matters.

What keeps me wired:

• Crafting reliable, composable frontend architecture
• Training & tinkering with generative models (GANs mostly)
• Building mobile-first apps that don’t scream “MVP”

For the past 6+ years, I’ve been working at the edge of frontend engineering—dabbling in everything from rendering Notion blocks in custom formats (Tetrapack) to building routing systems that treat JSON as a first-class API citizen (folder-routing).

I write JavaScript like Python and Python like poetry.

🧪 Stack (the curated kind):

• Languages: TypeScript, Python
• Frameworks: Next.js / Vite.js, Framer Motion
• State: Zustand
• Styling: Tailwind CSS, Radix UI, shadcn/ui
• Infra: Supabase, Firebase
• Testing: React Testing Library

Projects that mean something:

• Tetrapack: A Notion parser that doesn’t break
• folder-routing: Serve JSON as APIs like it’s 2099
• GANs, Cereals, and Android-VLMs — see more

Philosophy:

I prefer declarative code, predictable side effects, and opinionated architecture.
I don’t chase trends — I ship what I’d use myself.
