Aad Nanda

I build things.

Small, useful desktop apps — written in Python, designed for Ubuntu and macOS, shared on GitHub for anyone to poke at.

What I’m Into

The stack behind everything on this site.

🐍

Python

My default language for pretty much everything I build.

🐧

Ubuntu & Linux

My daily driver. Everything I make gets built and tested on it first.

🖥️

Desktop Apps

PyQt6, mostly — real native windows, not another Electron wrapper.

🌐

Open Source

Everything I finish (and plenty I don’t) ends up public on GitHub.

Selected Projects

A few of the things I’ve built and open-sourced. More on the Projects page.

A bit about me

I like taking things apart, figuring out how they work, and building my own version — usually in Python, usually on Ubuntu.
