Timeline of my adventures with computers
-
At 10, I got my first PC and taught myself to code.
-
At 14, I built my first game.
-
In college:
-
After college, joined American Express and quit a year later to startup.
-
My (failed) startup journey (2020-2022):
- Built a social app for football fans with Pratyush.
- Got a lot of love from early users.
- I learnt and did what needed to be done. Moved from Flutter to Chrome Extensions to Native Android to Web and finally React Native over 12+ iterations.
- Also messed around with Web3 but soon realised it wasn’t a fit.
- Sunsetted it in 2022.
-
Over the years:
2022
- Bantr — back your fav football team
- Bantr Reacts — react to every important thing that happens in football
- Reko — a social app for friends to share recommendations of things with close friends
- Stak — a chrome extension to create shareable stacks of links you bookmark
2021
- Benchtalk — voice rooms to watch matches together
- Fan Moments — an app for fans to share photos, videos while they are watching their teams play
- Group Stream — chrome extension to stream things together
- Factify — a whatsapp bot to check fake news during Covid

NOW - I wish to learn from and work alongside good people, doing ambitious things. If you think I’m a good fit, I’d love to chat! Email me at pingrishabh@gmail.com or DM me on Twitter 💫
What I know
I have a solid understanding of consumer products. I primarily work with JS/TS, React, React Native, Next.js, Node.js, Expo, Tailwind, Vercel, MongoDB and Firebase/Supabase to ship anything and everything across Web/Extensions/Android/iOS. I learn on the job, stay perpetually curious, love shipping fresh/risky things and obsess over pixel perfection.
