Hi, I'm Chaitanya Sharma, an undergrad at uwaterloo where I'm studying computer engineering with a specialization in quantum engineering and an option in artificial intelligence.

I'm actively working on some repositories/projects you might find of interest (some of them are pinned too):

• DBs: I wanted to learn about databases, so i decided, I'm just gonna binge-dev some.
• dist-sys (early stage): some distributed systems projects I'm working on, I've started with a distributed file system (inspired by the Google File System, and Hadoop Distributed File System), and I'm looking into implementing MapReduce from scratch.
• rtl-design: I really liked my digital hardware design course, which got me into Verilog/SystemVerilog. This is just an effort to keep that in continuity!
  (I'm taking a computer architecture course right now, where we're building a whole RISC-V Processor core in Verilog!)
• pyjsoncanvas: Obsidian open sourced their canvas file format as a standard, and this is just a python library to interface with that file format.
  I'm trying to keep up with theirs and others' (in the infinite canvas ecosystem) work in the Open Canvas Working Group where they're trying to build an interoperable standardized fileformat/protocol for infinite canvas tools like Excalidraw, tldraw and JSON Canvas.

fun fact about me: I play tabla , an indian percussion instrument

_{^{btw, shaders are really cool, but really hard, and I've been trying to get into it as a hobby, but I need to first build some first principles for it, if you got some resources for it, hmu from any of the links on the side! exempli gratia, the one on the top, you can find the code on}} [^1][^2]:
