I'm a self-taught design engineer based in new york , originally from chennai

I micromanage microinteractions for a living (well, I'm trying my best)

I am chronically active on twitter @wseemye ↗ , and I play chess ↗ (horribly)

Experiments — the lab notebook. Small finished studies in interaction — each one exists because I wanted to know exactly how something felt before I trusted it inside a product.
Groove — motion as tokens. Motion is the last part of a design system nobody tokenised. Groove makes easing, duration and spring first-class tokens, then exports them to every surface a product actually ships on.
idlejet — your app as a subway map. A structural diagnostic for an app's navigation graph — it finds the screens a user can reach but never leave, draws the whole thing as a transit map, and hands the fixes to your own coding agent without your source ever leaving your machine.
Dot Matrix — eighty objects, one grid. Eighty everyday objects rasterised at build time onto a fixed 40-cell grid, then morphed between on canvas — where dots only ever move, and never appear or disappear.
Wander — trains, slowly. A rail-first route planner that optimises for what you would see out of the window rather than how quickly you would arrive.
