Oct 2020 - Beginning

Started a youtube channel @devxmanan

Why ? : Since childhood, I've been fascinated by technology—constantly crafting science models and eager to share my insights with the world. But, Over time, my passion shifted toward coding and software; I even dabbled in creating mods for apps and games through reverse engineering back in the day.

I no longer upload on my YouTube channel—its journey took a different path—but I plan to share that story through my blog posts in the future.

Early 2021

My first blog website TechX Manan

By Coding ? : Not exactly—I turned to Google Blogger. While running my channel, I needed a platform to share materials, mods, and affiliate download links that YouTube wouldn't allow. I even built a WordPress website (self-taught via YouTube), but when I looked for it recently, I discovered it's no longer alive. I had also made an app for mod downloading—it had realtime chat features as well.

If you checked it out, you'll see it wasn't even in the category of average in terms of design—just as I had anticipated, haha..

Laying the Foundation - Coding Journey Begins

Although I had been learning Java since 9th grade, my real coding journey began when I started exploring HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. HTML and CSS after Java ? Yes—because it's one thing to work with console prints, and another to actually build something tangible. Every tag and every line of code opened up a new world, setting the stage for a career driven by continuous discovery and hands-on creation.

I started building simple websites, experimenting with different layouts, and learning about responsive design.I build a personal Portfolio Website using core html, css and Js- which I was maintaining till now. I built some practice projects as well which are listed on my old portfolio and will remain there only!

My expertise culminated with the launch of projects like Parijaat Vastra and Paraseek.These ventures showcase how I blend technical prowess with creative vision to build platforms that are both functional and visually compelling.You can know more about them at Projects page.
