Hey there! 👋 I'm Kethan VR

I'm a software engineer Student who transforms complex problems into elegant solutions. Currently building full-stack platforms that make a real impact—from AI-powered applications to campus digital ecosystems that serve thousands of students.

What drives me? Creating software that genuinely improves lives. Whether it's helping students track their campus journey through verified profiles or making sustainability data understandable, I focus on building solutions that matter.

Right now, I'm:

• Building next-generation campus platforms (CMRIT Events Hub & Academic Material Portal)
• Deep-diving into Next.js 16, TypeScript, and AI/LLM integration
• Crafting seamless user experiences with modern web technologies
• Solving real problems with scalable, production-ready solutions

Philosophy: Code with purpose, build with passion, and never stop learning. Also, I genuinely enjoy debugging—there's something thrilling about being a code detective! 🕵️‍♂️

A carefully curated tech stack mastered through real-world projects:

Production-ready solutions making a real impact:

A full-stack platform revolutionizing campus activities by bridging students and club administrators with verifiable records of participation, achievements, and skills. Features dynamic student profiles, QR-code attendance tracking, XP leaderboards, and automated event management.

Built with: Next.js 16, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Shadcn UI, Real-time Data Architecture

Here are a few projects I'm actually proud of (and that work most of the time):

An intelligent carbon-emission storytelling platform that transforms sustainability data into compelling narratives. Perfect for teams who need to explain impact, explore trade-offs, and pitch reduction strategies without drowning in spreadsheets. Features AI-powered insights, interactive dashboards, and forecast comparisons that make ESG reporting actually engaging.

Built with: Next.js, TypeScript, Recharts, Tailwind CSS, shadcn/ui, AI-powered analytics

Started this because I got tired of scrolling through endless stock photo sites. Now you can search Unsplash photos lightning-fast with a clean interface that doesn't make your eyes hurt.

These projects showcase different aspects of my development journey:

An AI-powered development platform that doesn't suck. Clean interface, real-time preview, and AI assistance that actually helps instead of getting in your way. Still working on making it perfect, but it's getting there!

Built with: React, Remix, TypeScript, CodeMirror 6, and some AI magic

An AI-driven app providing compassionate mental health support. Features chat functionality, mood tracking, and relaxation exercises. Mental health tech is important, and I wanted to contribute something meaningful to this space.

Scan labels on food, medicine, or cosmetics and get ingredient details plus a health score. Started building this after realizing I had no idea what half the ingredients in my food actually were!

Built with: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node.js, OpenFoodFacts API

Always down to chat about code, swap project ideas, or just talk tech. Don't be a stranger!

Good music = good code (that's totally how it works, right?)

"Code. Build. Learn. Repeat."

And occasionally question all life choices when debugging CSS

Thanks for stopping by! If something catches your eye, a star ⭐ would totally make my day
