ab About Me

Hello there! 👋 I'm Ayush Kushwaha, a 2023 Computer Engineering graduate from AKTU University with a solid 8.65 CGPA. While I've aced academics 📚, I'm also a proud Kurash martial artist 🥋 and an NCC B-certificate holder 🏆, proving that discipline and drive are part of my DNA.

I'm not just a coder 💻 — I'm a full-stack enthusiast and problem solver who loves turning ideas into impactful digital solutions. Whether it's building real-time apps like 🏸 Ninja Shuttlers for managing tournaments or deploying Go-based microservices with authentication and dashboards, I thrive on fusing logic, design, and performance.

From developing offline-first PWAs and encryption workflows to spinning up dashboards in Kibana and orchestrating cloud deployments on AKS/Kubernetes, my journey has been a hands-on adventure in modern tech. 💡

My trifecta: tech versatility 💡, solid foundations 📖, and a never-ending thirst for growth 🌱.
I thrive on creative challenges 🎨, smart architecture 💻, and building things that actually help people.

Currently, I'm riding a wave of tech innovation 🚀 — from full-stack development and encryption workflows to real-time dashboards and scalable systems.

✨ What sets me apart?

  • 💼 Real-world experience across DevOps, backend, and frontend.
  • 🛠️ Tools like Go, React, Python, PHP, Docker, MongoDB, and Azure.
  • 🔐 Building secure systems — from OTP logins to encryption exports.
  • 🌍 A passion for building things that help people — in education, sports, or business.

I'm always open to collaborating on meaningful projects, learning new tools, and pushing creative boundaries.
Let's connect and build something awesome together! 📬

Projects

🏸 Ninja Shuttlers – Badminton Tournament Manager

A PWA to simplify badminton tournament management with team creation, match scheduling, and score tracking.

Why I Built This:
➔ I often organize badminton tournaments and needed a reliable and efficient tool to handle player registration, match generation, and live scoring—all in one portable app.
➔ What started as a personal tool is now actively used by fellow badminton players in my community to host and manage their own tournaments with ease.

Challenges & Learnings:
➔ To handle unreliable network conditions at indoor courts, I implemented PWA caching and offline-first strategies, which significantly improved usability and responsiveness.
➔ Converting the app into an installable PWA eliminated the need to reopen the browser repeatedly, offering a native-like experience for users.
➔ Optimizing UI performance for dynamic updates—such as real-time fixture generation and leaderboard changes—helped me dive deep into event delegation, efficient DOM manipulation, and structured state management.

Features:
➔ Real-time management of players, matches, scores, leaderboards.
➔ Includes bulk player upload, team shuffling, match fixtures, playoff brackets, and a visual podium for winners.
➔ Import/export data functionality ensures persistent tournament records.
➔ Integrated animations and mobile-first responsive UI enhance user engagement.

Tools & Tech:

🔗 URL Shortener

Custom short links with login-based access, expiry settings, and admin panel.

Why I Built This:
➔ During college, I found it difficult to remember long deep-link URLs for projects, resumes, and assignments. Most popular keywords were already taken on public URL shorteners, limiting customization.
➔ Building my own URL shortener gave me complete control over link naming, expiry, and access—making it far more personalized and practical..

Challenges & Learnings:
➔ Building OTP-based authentication in Go taught me secure login flows.
➔ Improved response time by 83% using Fiber and goroutines.

Features:
➔ Login-based URL creation, with expiry and user-level access.
➔ A system was created for user login authentication that verifies users by delivering the OTP to the registered email address..
➔ Admin dashboard to monitor all users and links.
➔ Multithreading support and AWS EC2 hosting.

Tools & Tech:

Golang

Fiber (Go)

React.js

Vite

MongoDB

SASS

📘 eNotes – Educational Resource Sharing

Upload, request, and share educational notes and quizzes as a centralized resource hub.

Why I Built This:
➔ During the early days of the pandemic, students lacked centralized access to study materials. I built eNotes to fill that gap and support peer-to-peer sharing.

Challenges & Learnings:
➔ Creating a secure PHP backend with OTP-based login and file upload/download controls taught me about secure file handling.
➔ Integrating email with SendGrid added a real-world communication workflow.

Features:
➔ Upload/download/request notes.
➔ OTP-based login and access control for registered users.

Tools & Tech:

PHP

JavaScript

MySQL

HTML5

🧥 Invisible Cloak – Real-time Image Processing

Python GUI app that renders invisibility in real-time using image masking techniques.

Why I Built This:
➔ I wanted to experiment creatively with OpenCV and real-time image manipulation, while also learning GUI development in Python.

Challenges & Learnings:
➔ Gained hands-on experience with OpenCV and NumPy for real-time frame capture, color detection, and background masking.
➔ Learned how to build a user-friendly desktop GUI using Tkinter, making the tool accessible to non-technical users.
➔ Packaged the project into an executable file, allowing users to run it without needing to install Python or any dependencies.

Features:
➔ Select cloak color to make user invisible.
➔ With this Image Processing method, we create an invisibility cloak by selecting parts of a single predefined color from a video and replacing them with an already existing similar background.
➔ This programme may be used with both a webcam and a phone camera.
➔ This programme also allows you to capture video for up to 15 minutes.

Tools & Tech:

Python

OpenCV
