Brain online. Sleep schedule: unreachable.
Computer Science student, co-founder of two very different companies, and someone who can't leave an interesting problem alone long enough to finish the last one. Most of what ends up in a repository here started as "wait, how does that actually work" and spiraled from there — sometimes into a startup, sometimes into a folder I'll open again in three months.

🌍 Babelize
Co-Founder
AI-powered localization for modern web apps.
Learned how beutiful |
⚙️ Axior Labs
Co-Founder
Making physical systems observable and intelligent.
Learned how can the one project you thought was useless, can turn into a start-up!! |
🧠 Current Rabbit Hole
Ongoing
System design this week. Compilers are next in the queue.

Ujwal Bajaj — CS student, occasional destroyer of working code.
Splits time between Babelize (localization) and Axior Labs
(industrial hardware + software), and whatever unrelated
technical rabbit hole currently has priority.
Mission: understand things well enough to build them from scratch,
not well enough to explain them at a dinner party.Not really a résumé — closer to a snapshot of how I work. I learn by building, not by reading about building, so most of what's here exists because I wanted to see if I could make it, not because it was on a roadmap. If a repo looks abandoned, it probably taught me what I needed and got benched.

Babelize Axior Labs
Everything upstream feeds into what I actually ship. The rabbit holes aren't random — they're mostly "what would make the products I'm building better, or break less."

I don't collect frameworks. I collect ways of thinking. If I understand why something works, I can usually build with it — even badly, the first time.

🌍 Babelize Making web applications multilingual, without the usual localization pain.
Shipping, breaking, rebuilding, repeat. |
⚙️ Axior Labs Engineering software for physical systems — RFID, asset tracking, occupancy intelligence.
Building, experimenting, making hardware behave. |

Attempting automatic fix... failed.
Reason: user opened another interesting article.
[✓] Rewrite the architecture because the new one "feels cleaner"
[✓] Read documentation for fun
[ ] Finish every unfinished side project
[ ] Stop opening new browser tabs
Last two items postponed indefinitely.

Technology changes. What I'm curious about next week probably won't be what I'm curious about today. That's the whole system, working as intended.
