Howdy,
I'm Rohan.

I type for a living — software, side projects, and the occasional camera walk. This is a corner of the internet for things I've made and noticed.

Looking around

Walks, trips, orchids, and whatever else stopped me long enough to press the shutter.

About

Keyboard spells & magical sand

Professionally I type on a keyboard — nowadays to ship products, send Instant Messages, wrangle spreadsheets, and write docs. For the bulk of my 20s it was commanding the magical sand that channels the Hand of Indra, mostly to render text on a webpage.
