3rd-semester student at the University of Peshawar, building on the MERN stack. Still early in the process — learning, exploring, and shipping real projects along the way.
Usman is a 3rd-semester student at the University of Peshawar, working through the MERN stack one real project at a time. The goal right now isn't to look finished — it's to keep shipping things that work, understand why they work, and get better at the parts that didn't.

Framed by semester, since that's the real unit of time here — not a polished résumé timeline.
Getting started
Started learning the fundamentals of the web — HTML, CSS, and JavaScript — before formally enrolling in a degree program.
Semester 1–2
Began coursework and started building small front-end projects alongside it, moving from static pages to interactive UI.
Semester 2–3
Moved from front-end-only pages to full applications: React on the client, Node.js and Express on the server, MongoDB for data.
Semester 3 — now
Currently a 3rd-semester student, deepening TypeScript and Next.js, and using Git and GitHub as the default workflow for every project.
Exploring next
Starting to explore AWS and how full-stack applications are actually deployed, monitored, and run in production.
Open to internships, collaborations, and small projects that are a genuine chance to learn something new.
