Mishal Shanavas

Backend Developer • Cloud and Linux Enthusiast

Hey there! I'm Mishal — a Linux enthusiast, backend developer, and automation dude who loves building things that solve real-world problems. I specialize in creating lightweight, efficient tools using Python, Bash, and occasionally C. My projects range from bots that automate Instagram and Snapchat to custom API backends and network utilities. With a strong background in networking and a growing interest in Rust, I often dive deep into system internals, proxy setups, and CLI workflows.
When I’m not coding, I’m probably exploring obscure Linux distros, optimizing my setup, or helping others troubleshoot on Reddit. I'm passionate about open source, clean code, and the kind of learning that happens when you break stuff and fix it better.
Oh, I use Arch btw!
