About

Namaste! I'm Manas.

I'm currently a Final Year student at Techno Engineering College Banipur and the CTO & Co-Founder of Vistai, where I focus on building meaningful products and turning ideas into real-world solutions.

I enjoy working on projects from concept to launch and learning through the process of building. Along the way, I've also been actively involved in the open-source community, serving as a Maintainer for AcWoC and ECWoC and contributing to initiatives like GSSoC, SWOC, and Hacktoberfest. These experiences have allowed me to collaborate with developers from different backgrounds and grow through shared learning.

I'm passionate about creating impactful technology, exploring new ideas, and continuously improving through hands-on experience.

I'm always open to connecting with people who enjoy building, learning, and creating meaningful things together.
