About

Ashish Prajapati

I build products and tools I wish existed.

Based in India

A little about me

I'm a builder. I ship products people can actually use — live apps, starter kits and guides, and free browser tools when I need them myself. TypeScript and Node.js are home. I care about the unglamorous parts that make products real: auth, workers, caching, rate limits, payments, and real-time systems. If it isn't live and useful, it doesn't belong on this site.

Most of what I build starts as something I needed myself. I stay with it after launch — debugging, tightening, and keeping it running. I write about backends, Linux, and developer workflows when I have something worth sharing.

What I focus on

  • Products. Shipping live products people can actually use, plus starter kits, templates, and guides in the store.
  • Browser tools. Free, private browser tools for JSON, regex, and images. Start at /tools.
  • Writing. Writing about backends, Linux, and developer workflows on the blog.

Engineering focus

I build developer tools, real-time products, and small systems software, with a bias toward secure backends. I have also started doing bug bounty research, learning through real web application reconnaissance and careful validation.

  • Developer tooling. HTTPal, Commit Conventional, and Git from Scratch.
  • Systems and CLI software. as-vim and CPH for Zed.
  • Real-time products. WebSocket Chat and Cricbid.
  • Security research. Recently started bug bounty work, focusing on web attack surface mapping, API behavior, and careful validation.
  • Secure backend architecture. Sessions, rate limits, sandboxes, and resilient services.
