i mostly do full stack stuff but somehow end up spending most of my time on backend systems, ai/ml and random projects i decided were a good idea at 2am
currently building vithi, a study platform that started as a small idea and somehow became an entire ecosystem
i code, doomscroll and occasionally remember i have school
name aarush
alias rusetiq
location abu dhabi, uae
focus backend engineering, ai/ml, full stack
currently building vithi
website rusetiq.dev
status probably debugging something
i like building things that solve actual problems, or at least problems that seemed important at 2am
mostly interested in how systems work behind the scenes, how to make them scale and how much stuff i can get running on cloudflare before something breaks

a better way to figure out what you're supposed to be studying
made this cuz apparently keeping track of school normally wasnt complicated enough
vithi brings your tasks, schedules, study plans and progress into one place, with ai-powered tools and roadmaps that help turn what you want to learn into something you can actually follow

make every action count
built this to make everyday sustainable choices a little easier to stick with
log an action, upload photo evidence and let gemini check it. tracks estimated carbon and water savings, streaks, badges and points, with a community feed and rewards

india's eVisa experience, but actually usable
i looked at india's eVisa website and decided yeah i wanna redo this
redesigned the experience to make applying less confusing, faster and usable on basically anything, with application tracking, document handling and an admin workflow
built for Build What Moves India, where it made the top 250

attendance, without the whole roll call thing
a biometric attendance system that uses computer vision to recognize enrolled students, track attendance sessions and manage records
includes enrollment, recognition, session management and a parent portal
built as my class 12 computer science project because apparently a normal database project wasnt enough
Python Flask OpenCV SQLite face recognition
05 / Clippy Vision
open source computer vision
an open source computer vision project ive contributed to
very cool project go look at it
Python computer vision open source

hackathons need infrastructure too
we needed something to run hackathons
so i made something to run hackathons
built for Dunes, handles participants, events, authentication, admin stuff and basically everything else needed to actually run one

08 making something for 7 hours straight
then realizing its 3am
probably writing python instead of doing whatever im actually supposed to be doing rn
