Experiences

His source of knowledge, besides the internet

Some people learn by doing, and some understand and then do. Finding himself being the amalgamation of the two, Yashvardhan believes in knowing just enough so that it is practicable.

Since gaining knowledge about software development, He always tries his best to be a part of a new experience.
