Hello I am Shuja Ur Rahman.

Welcome to my corner of the web! Allow me to take you on a journey through my life and passions.

The Beginning: A Love for Learning

From a young age, I've always been fascinated by the world of computers. Growing up in Aligarh, I was the kid who loved to tinker with gadgets and dive deep into the mysteries of technology. My formal education began at CBSE Delhi, where I completed my Secondary School with a perfect 10 CGPA in 2017. This set the stage for my future endeavors.

The Academic Journey

Determined to pursue my passion for technology, I joined Aligarh Muslim University for my higher education. My academic journey here has been both challenging and rewarding:

  • Senior Secondary School (2017 – 2019): I excelled with a score of 76.4%, building a strong foundation in science and technology.
  • Bachelor of Computer Application (2019 – 2022): I deepened my knowledge with a CGPA of 8.1, diving into the world of programming, algorithms, and software development.
  • Master of Computer Application (2023 – Present): Currently, I am further honing my skills with a CGPA of 8.6, working on advanced projects and research.

Diving into the World of Code

My journey through the realm of programming languages and developer tools has been nothing short of exhilarating. From mastering PHP, Python, SQL, Java, C, and C++ to embracing modern web technologies like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript (ReactJs), I've continuously sought to expand my technical toolkit.

Projects: Turning Ideas into Reality

AMU PYQ Papers

In March 2024, I created a dynamic web application for students to access previous year question papers. This project employed HTML, JavaScript, Ajax, PHP, and OOPs, providing a seamless user experience and robust admin review features.

Currently-Playing on Spotify

In January 2024, I developed an interactive script using Spotify API, JSON, JavaScript, Ajax, and PHP. This script displays the currently playing Spotify track without reloading the entire page, integrating seamlessly with web pages for real-time music updates.

Personal Web Terminal

August 2023 saw the creation of my personalized web terminal using Vanilla JavaScript. This terminal offers a range of commands for information and interaction, leveraging APIs for dynamic data fetching.

Blog Web App

In November 2023, I built a blog web app using JavaScript and PHP. This app enables easy blog CRUD operations, complete with a login/signup feature, contact section, and an exclusive admin panel for managing queries and feedback.

Covisurance

December 2022 marked the development of Covisurance, an automated health process platform using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and APIs. This project streamlined online applications, payments, and claims, with enhanced security features and user-friendly interfaces.

Certifications and Workshops: Constantly Learning

I'm a firm believer in continuous learning and self-improvement. Over the years, I've earned several certifications:

  • The Complete JavaScript Course 2024: From Zero to Expert (June 2024)
  • Google Cloud Study Jams Labs Certificate (Feb 2024)
  • 100 Days of Code: The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp (Feb 2024)
  • The Complete 2024 Web Development Bootcamp (Jan 2024)
  • Geodata Processing Using Python (Jan 2023)

I've also participated in various workshops to keep my skills sharp:

  • "Introduction to Research Practices" (Nov 18-21, 2023)
  • "Cyber Security: Pen Testing Methodology" (Nov 4-10, 2023)
  • "CS360: Bits to Bots" (Oct 9-14, 2023)

Beyond the Code: Hobbies and Interests

While technology is my passion, I have a rich tapestry of interests that color my life. Music is a constant companion, with genres like Dream Pop, Shoegaze, Ambient Pop, Slowcore, and Indie Rock being my favorites. I also enjoy 2000s Bollywood and Ghazal music occasionally, with artists like Eminem, 2Pac, Biggie, and indie talents like Yawar, Abdal, and Alisethi filling my playlists.

Fitness is another important aspect of my life, as I believe a healthy body fosters a sharp mind. When I'm not coding or working out, you'll find me immersed in books, exploring the worlds crafted by authors like Fyodor Dostoevsky and Haruki Murakami.

My curiosity extends beyond Earth, as I am deeply interested in space research, particularly artificial satellites and the mysteries of the Moon and Mars.

Let's Connect

I'm always eager to connect with like-minded individuals, collaborate on exciting projects, or simply chat about tech, music, or books. Feel free to reach out to me:
