No Roadmap. No Mentor. No Money.
Just a laptop, a wifi connection, and a feeling that the future was being built right now — and I didn't want to miss it.
For the past 3 years I've been teaching myself AI and open source development from scratch — in Hyderabad, India, with zero team and zero funding.
Here's What Came Out of That
→ an automated developer accountability system that runs entirely on GitHub
→ a self-validating OSS directory that maintains itself with no human input
→ a CLI tool that helped 25+ people make their first open source contribution ever
→ a full AI agent platform built and deployed solo
→ bots that read GitHub issues and submit real fixes using LLMs
101+ merged PRs across the ecosystem. Still shipping.
I'm Not Waiting to "Be Ready"
I'm already building the things that are supposed to come next.
Today I Launched My GitHub Sponsors Page
Not because I need validation — because I want to keep doing this full-time without having to stop and find a job every few months.
If something I've built ever helped you, or if you just believe in people who build before they're supposed to — consider sponsoring.
Even $5/month keeps this going.
You're not donating. You're early. 🚀
