Flutter products
Thoughtful mobile apps with practical UX, APIs, auth, notifications and real backends.
Building, breaking & fixing things
I build useful things with code, circuits & curiosity.
Flutter apps, embedded systems, web products, self-hosted tools and practical experiments — built in Kerala and shipped to the internet.

What I build
One toolbox.
One toolbox.
Many rabbit holes.
I like projects where software touches the real world — or where a tiny tool removes a very specific annoyance.
Embedded & IoT
ESP32, Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects where sensors, networks and code meet.
Web systems
Lean sites, internal tools, PHP/MySQL apps and WordPress where WordPress actually makes sense.
Servers & experiments
Self-hosting, Docker, networking, local AI and the occasional “can I run this on that?” experiment.
Selected work
Projects, not
Projects, not
portfolio filler.
A mix of apps, platforms and experiments I’ve designed, built or keep improving.
Flutter + Supabase
EthicPay
A clean expense-sharing app for groups and one-to-one debts, designed to keep the social accounting part simple.
Open project ↗
Lineage
A private family-tree platform with relationship discovery, multiple views, invitations and privacy-aware family data.
App
Quran Reels
A focused short-video experience for beneficial Islamic content, without the noisy social feed around it.
Audio
Ahlussunna Voice
A Flutter audio app with background playback, streaming, push notifications and listening history.
Read ↗
DIY Usthad
Hands-on notes and tutorials around Raspberry Pi, Arduino, ESP32, Linux, networking and maker projects.
On the workbench
Always testing something.
The subjects change. The method usually doesn’t: understand it, build a small version, break it, then improve it.
01
Product experiments
↗
Small apps and tools with a bias toward useful over impressive.
02
Local AI + self-hosting
↗
Running useful services at home and understanding the plumbing underneath.
03
Better interfaces
↗
Making technical tools feel clear, calm and obvious to use.
04
Documenting fixes
↗
Because the weird bug I hit today will probably annoy someone else tomorrow.
From the notebook
I write down
I write down
what worked.
Short fixes, tutorials and useful notes — mostly written after I’ve already lost enough time to the problem.
Flutter
Flutter App Icon Missing After Changing Package Name?
A quick Android manifest fix for a launcher icon that suddenly falls back to the default.
Android
How to Completely Remove an Android App Using ADB
A practical cleanup workflow for Android apps when the normal uninstall path is not enough.
Git
Git — remote: Repository not found
Notes for diagnosing one of those tiny Git errors that can steal much more time than it deserves.
About me
Not a polished “10x engineer” biography. Just the useful version.
I’m Najad — a developer and maker based in Kerala. I enjoy the space where software meets hardware: mobile apps, embedded devices, websites, servers and small tools built to solve annoyingly specific problems.
Most of what I know came from building something, breaking it, figuring out why, and writing down the fix.
Principle 01Useful beats flashy.
Principle 02Simple is a feature.
Principle 03Own the stack when it helps.
Principle 04Share the fix after you find it.
Have something interesting?
Let’s build something useful.
I take on selected development and technical projects when the problem is a good fit.
