🚀 Aspiring Software Engineer | Python Developer | DevOps Enthusiast | Open Source Contributor 📍 Varanasi, India

I’m a self-driven developer and DevOps enthusiast, currently preparing for my engineering entrance exams while building hands-on, real-world projects.

My current mission is to explore the full DevOps pipeline — from backend APIs to container orchestration — and learn through practical implementation rather than theory dumps.

I believe in “learning by building, failing fast, and documenting everything.”

Fedora DevOps Lab

A self-hosted full-stack lab project where I’m building, containerizing, and deploying a FastAPI backend with a React (Vite) frontend on a Fedora environment. The goal: Implement CI/CD pipelines, monitoring, and complete local automation from scratch.

🧠 Focus Areas:

• Building reproducible full-stack environments using Docker and Compose
• CI/CD automation with GitHub Actions (coming soon)
• Optimizing lightweight workflows for development on limited hardware

I'm comfortable working across the full stack, from modern decoupled apps to classic monolithic systems.

Modern DevOps & Full-Stack (Current Focus):

• Frontend: React, Vite, TypeScript
• Backend: Python (FastAPI), SQLAlchemy
• DevOps: Docker, Git, Linux (Fedora)
• Database: PostgreSQL (with Alembic for migrations)

Classic Full-Stack & Foundational:

• Backend: Python (Flask/FastAPI), Jinja2 (Templating)
• Frontend: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (DOM & API Fetching)
• Database: SQLAlchemy, SQLite

Before tackling my main lab, I built a solid foundation of full-stack, data-driven applications.

• Full-Stack Monoliths: A portfolio of apps (LIfeLogger, SkillShare, FinanceApp, Todoapp) built using the classic Python stack (FastAPI/Flask, SQLAlchemy, Jinja2 templates) to master CRUD operations and database management.
• Client-Side App: A weatherapp built with vanilla JavaScript to practice external API consumption and DOM manipulation.

When I’m not debugging YAML files or fighting dependency errors, I unwind through: 🎸 Playing the guitar 🎨 Creating art 📚 Reading fiction (and the occasional manga arc binge)

• 🐦 Twitter / X: @AkshatKush1903 – where I share progress on my #DevOpsJourney and #100DaysOfCode
• 🧭 GitHub: You’re already here — explore my projects, drop a star, or open an issue.

“Consistency beats talent when talent doesn’t stay consistent.”

Every commit, every container, every line — part of my journey to become the engineer I wish I had to learn from.
