“Cheshire-Puss, would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”
“That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,” said the Cat.
“I don’t care much where–” said Alice.
“Then it doesn’t matter which way you go,” said the Cat.

Hello there and thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet!

My name is Anant, and I’m a hacker (the good kind!). I have a special affinity towards free software in particular. I’ve participated in several such projects since 2004 and continue to do so.

I completed a Masters in Parallel and Distributed Computer Systems at the Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam; and a Bachelors in Computer Engineering at MNIT, Jaipur. After working on a range of experimental projects at Mozilla Labs, I joined Firebase as the 5th employee and almost all my time is currently devoted to the startup.

If you’re looking to get in touch with me, the best way is to send me an email: anant@kix.in. If you prefer a more instant form of communication, I sometimes lurk on the Freenode IRC network under the nickname KillerX (don’t ask), or on the Mozilla IRC network simply as anant.

The opinions expressed on this website are mine alone and nobody, including my employer, necessarily agrees with them.
