+Hi, I’m a full-stack developer who loves building things. I enjoy hacking on side projects, exploring new technologies, and deep-diving into the technical details of how things work.
+I work across the stack — from crafting interactive frontends to designing robust backend systems. When I’m not writing code, I’m probably reading about distributed systems, tinkering with new tools, or working on one of my many side projects.
+I enjoy hacking on things and deep diving into the technical details of protocols, performance optimization, and algorithms.
+If you want to see what I’ve been working on, check out my GitHub. Feel free to reach out by email if you want to talk about something I’m doing.

+Welcome to my new blog! I’ve rebuilt my personal website from scratch using Hugo, a fast static site generator written in Go.
+I wanted something minimal, fast, and that gets out of the way. Hugo checks all the boxes:
+The design is inspired by the Cactus Dark theme — a minimalist, terminal-inspired aesthetic with monospace typography and a dark color scheme. I built the theme from scratch for full control.
+Here’s a quick code example to make sure syntax highlighting works:
+def greet(name: str) -> str:
+ """Return a greeting message."""
+ return f"Hello, {name}! Welcome to divyam.dev"
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+ print(greet("World"))
+And some JavaScript too:
+const fetchPosts = async () => {
+ const response = await fetch('/api/posts');
+ const posts = await response.json();
+ return posts.filter(post => post.published);
+};
+I plan to write about:
+Stay tuned — there’s more coming soon.
+ +Recently, I needed to translate a PDF document from Hindi to English. Sounds simple enough, right? Turns out, it’s a surprisingly deep rabbit hole.
+The approach I settled on follows this flow:
+PDF → Images → OCR → Translation → Rendered Images → PDF
+Each step has its own set of challenges:
+The code is messy but it works. Sometimes that’s enough.
