I’ve already started. But now, I’m showing up as I really am.

Hey. I’m Anushka.

You might’ve seen me post about ConnectX on LinkedIn.
Yeah — that AI-powered platform I’m building.
But this post?
It’s different.

Not trying to sound smart.
Not here to impress anyone.
Just here to be real.

Because truth is — I’m figuring out things while building something I truly believe in.

✅ What I’m building:

ConnectX —
Something between LinkedIn, ChatGPT, Fiverr & Tinder.
Yeah, sounds wild. But it makes sense to me.

It’s about real connections. Not just cold resumes.
AI-powered, career-focused, human-first.
Not a college project. Not for show.
Just something I’m building from scratch. Because I believe in it.

📍Where I’m at (honestly):

Learning HTML, CSS, JavaScript

Using Firebase to build my MVP

DSA: Day 54/200 — some days I love it, most days I just show up anyway

Slowly getting more comfortable with Git & GitHub

AWS + backend learning next

Prepping for GSSoC 2025 (Contributor + Campus Ambassador)

Also juggling college, late nights, self-doubt, and those random moments where I question everything.

But I still keep going.
Because I know why I started.

🎯 Why I’m posting this:

Not because I’ve “made it.”
I haven’t.
But I’ve started.
And I’ve stayed. Even on the silent days.

I’m done waiting to be “ready.”
This is my journey — messy, bold, and fully mine.

If you're also:

Building something without a full roadmap

Learning to code while lowkey overwhelmed

Dreaming bigger than your current setup

Let’s connect.
No ego. No filters.
Just people trying to build something real.
