Campus food and utilities stack with 5,000+ daily active
users and 150K+ monthly requests, adopted in under a week
on the ground. Progressive web app plus REST API,
dynamic XLSX ingestion, and Cloudflare R2 at the edge.
Architecture write-up: building a food-court menu. Bundles campus directory, Sindhi mess menu, and the TIK admin API.
Forgejo-backed suite of small tools for peers: 10,000+
aggregate DAU across sub-apps. Highlights include OR-Free (live OpenRouter model
availability and pricing) and MIT Courses Search with an
interactive graph of 500+ nodes. Also ships transcript-cli, the campus directory, and the Mass Contact Maker; more on git.aadit.cc.
Self-hosted cloud since 2022: 70+ services on Proxmox
and Docker, 98% uptime over four years, 8TB MergerFS, and
3-2-1 backups. Blackwell GPUs run custom object detection
on security camera feeds at 30fps while offloading about
95% of related compute from CPUs (including 4K
transcoding). Survived live DDoS at 50K+ req/min with a
roughly 95% reduction in exposed attack surface.
Telemetry through Grafana and Loki.
Phone-driven agent loop for device APIs and filesystem
workflows, extensible through tmux and Android shell
tooling so you can edit or query files on the go without
lugging a full desktop environment.
