I am a software engineer from Mumbai, India. I have worked on Linux platform since my graduation in 2003. My entire career has taken me through various forms of Linux including Android.
I have worked with multiple programming languages, my most favourite being Python and Javascript.
Recently I have made it my mission to host my own services and taking back ownership of all my data, by moving away from third party services, especially those from the big six: Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, Apple and Salesforce. I have successfully set up my own email server, chat server, VoIP, online file sharing, online calendar and a bunch of others. Through my course, I wish to share my knowledge to help you host your own services and own your data with full control.
