About Me

Purujith Kadekar
📍 Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
🎓 B.Tech E&TC · DSCE (2025–2029)
🤖 AI/ML Enthusiast & Full-Stack Developer
💼 Open to internships & collaboration

I'm Purujith — a developer, engineer, and classical performing artist from Bengaluru. I build full-stack web applications and AI-powered tools, with a focus on products that actually reach people and solve real problems.

My project GazeFocus — a real-time AI gaze-tracking learning platform — has onboarded 2,500+ learners logging 50,000+ hours of focused study. I built it end-to-end, from in-browser eye tracking to the YouTube player integration and note-taking system.

I'm simultaneously pursuing B.Tech in Electronics & Telecommunication at DSCE . Beyond code, I've trained for 11+ years in Yakshagana and Carnatic Mridanga — a discipline that shapes how I think and build.

No polished narratives, just real things built and shipped.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

Python JavaScript (ES6+) React / Next.js Node.js TensorFlow / PyTorch Oracle Cloud (OCI) Docker / Git Raspberry Pi
