Note: If you landed here from the top committers page, let me set the record straight: I value quality, not quantity. (Further info at the end of this page)

Full-stack engineer specializing in .NET and React since 2018, with a strong interest in research-driven innovation. I’m particularly focused on medical informatics, computer vision for handwritten health data, and AI applications in healthcare for underserved regions. I enjoy solving meaningful problems through code, regularly sharing my hobby projects and helper tools as open-source contributions on GitHub. I thrive on experimentation, collaboration, and continuous learning.

🧐 What's the notice on the top of the readme?

Once there was a trend of people trying to get the highest commit count on GitHub by any means necessary. I was particularly annoyed by this trend when I saw employers and recruiters using commit counts as a metric to judge developers in public posts on LinkedIn. So, I decided to take a stand and show how ridiculous this practice is.
Most of the top committers were using bots to spam commits, some of them committing just about anything, only a few of them were actually doing something useful. I wanted to show that anyone can get on the top of the list without making any meaningful contribution. So, I created a blank repository and a bot that would automatically add thousands of commits there every day.

🔍 Where did the commits go?

I believe I proved my point, and I don't want to be associated with that kind of behavior. So, I deleted the repository and the bot. I also removed the commits from my profile. I want to be known for my real contributions, not for spamming commit counts.

💭 A Word of Advice:

Recruiters and employers, please don't judge developers/engineers solely based on commit counts. It's a flawed metric that doesn't reflect a developer's true skills or contributions. Instead, look for developers who are genuinely passionate about their work and are making meaningful contributions to open source or their projects.
Developers and engineers, please don't fall for the trap of chasing commit counts. If anything, it can be a red flag. It shows that you are more interested in quantity than quality. It may present you as a spammer or someone who is not serious about their work. Instead, focus on making real contributions and building your skills. That's what really matters in the long run.
My position: I stand clear, quality over quantity. I know I am not the best engineer out there (obviously), so my projects may not be the best, but I am always trying to improve myself, and I am proud of my work.

I was declared "on the brink of death" twice. Yet, I pulled through and am now living a healthy life. This is my third attempt at life, and I'm committed to making a real impact in the world. Want to know more? Connect with me!
