Hello everyone,

My name is Pranav Pandey. I am a professional software developer and a little bit designer from India working on many technologies, especially those related to Android.

Background

I am a self-taught developer and working on Android since 2011 and now trying to set up my own app development business. In those years, I have faced many challenges related to self-learning and software development. I already overcame some of them and still searching the solution for the rest. My story is quite interesting as I started with reverse-engineering the various Android apps and developing custom ROMs at XDA followed by the native app development in 2013.

Nothing is perfect but can be better. Developing such better things!

Then, I worked with a couple of start-ups for around two years and learned a lot during that period. I also traveled to other countries and led the software development of three Android devices. Thanks to all of my managers, team members and other co-workers.

Experience

I have a blog to share my experiences with others in which I am revealing the hidden secrets of Android and software development. I am also discussing some of the mistakes that I made in the past so that you can learn and improve on them.

Don't be afraid of failures, it makes you more confident!

Open Source

I always believe in open-source projects and helping others as I have learned a lot from this community, so I am working on various open-source projects and giving back to the community.

Future

I mostly work on my own projects and develop various libraries according to the requirements to make the software development better. Around 60% of my work is already open-sourced and there is a lot of motivation required to maintain them without any financial support.

Thanks to GitHub for this opportunity and with your support, I will be able to continue working on them with even better possibilities.

Thanks for your support!
