Hey there, I'm Satvik.
I love simplifying problems and sharing my knowledge.
Trying to write bi-weekly blogs and daily leetcoding explanation, honestly should join my discord if you want to be a part of the community and would like to join my daily leetcode sessions. Scroll down to view more about my socials and projects.
My story
In grade eleven, I remember watching the movie social network inspired me to make a web page and start something. Immitedatly after watching the movie, I opened up a tutorial from youtube and clicked 'how to make a web page.' First, I downloaded this weird text editor named bracket. Then made an HTML file. HTML was straightforward. However, getting introduced to CSS was a whole different thing. Linking CSS in HTML files itself was confusing at the time. After a few days, I tended to give up and never coded anything till college.
In college, I first met people who knew how to code while I had no idea what was happening. The entire first semester was me looking at others writing code and copy-pasting, not understanding any statements, just looking at everything as syntax. Every week, for each lab, I used to hit up the lab tutors and show them my broken homework while they fixed the code for me. I don't know how long it took; all I could say was that it was the fewest worst times in my life.
During the next semester, my professor gave the class a pop quiz, and surprisingly I was able to solve the questions no sweat while I saw others struggle. It was then I discovered my passion for coding. I started learning all the concepts the class was going over. After finishing all the topics, I found that data structures are fundamental in CS. I started grinding on them, created each data structure, and solved a few leetcoding problems. Simantinously, I began to read daily news about software engineering. React was a hot topic at the time, and the name caught my mind. Ever since then, I have wanted to get into front-end development.
