Hi, I'm Prajwal (Praj), a 15‑year‑old tech enthusiast from India. I love coding, making robots, exploring tech and creating youtube content.
I started learning to code when I was 10 years (2020) during the covid-19 pandemic, I started learning block coding through MIT app inventor at the age of 10, when I turned 12, I started learning HTML and CSS(That's when I explored the world of real coding). I joined a coding class where I further learnt HTML and CSS. At the age of 14, I learnt Python and JS a little bit.
14 years was my turning point - I was in 9th std and I got the opportunity to participate in many coding and tech interschools. And at the age of 14 when I was in 10 std, I discovered a coding club called hack club, which organized hackathons throughout the year where I earned many rewards.
My journey is about experimenting, failing, and improving — and sharing what I learn with others.
About
YouTube Creator
I run youtube channels related to tech and coding
Praj tech - one of my latest created youtube channel related to tech and android and windows tutorials (how to).
Code Praj - This is another latest channel which is related to coding. I started this channel recently as my passion towards coding grew.
Robotics
I joined Atal tinkering lab in my school when I was in 6th std. ATL lab is all about robotics and building tech stuff. I worked with Arduino, sensors and many hardware stuff there with my friends. My first project in ATL was an automatic breaking system which I and my friends made for ATL marathon.
App & Web
I have build a lot of websites, games and apps, as coding is my main hobby. In those, some were for practice, some were for competitions and some just for fun. You can view all my projects in github: https://github.com/Prajwaluppalapati
Competitions
I participated in many coding and tech competitions and won only once.
Some of them are:
• ATL marathon - 2022
• Inspiration awards - 2023 (I won ₹10,000)
