Hello there! 👋 I am Shantanu Khedkar, an avid programmer and open source enthusiast. My passion lies in creating projects that range from microcontrollers to frontend development and graphic design. Repurposing unused IoT devices and hardware hacking is one of the ways I like to challenge myself.
Apart from working with technology, I love playing table-tennis and cubing. I am always learning through interaction with real-world products. The design of both code and user-interface inspire me to create and develop.
I hope to continue learning the various practices that give foundation to our digital world, and contribute meaningfully to it in the future.
These are the tools and platforms that aid my creative process. I have a strong grasp of frontend programming, and am looking to explore embedded systems. I currently run Debian 13 with Gnome, choosing to use privacy respecting free software and servcies whenever possible. On the hardware side, I have decent experience in thru-hole soldering and CAD.
