What I've Been Building

Single-file web apps that run entirely in your browser — no accounts, no servers, no data leaving your device.

Recent additions: a Twitter archive cleaner, P2P file transfer over WebRTC, an LLM comparison workbench, a desktop OS for the whole collection, a Linux VM in the browser tab, and an interactive atlas of 2,500 years of Indian history — all as single HTML files. Everything is open source.

Featured

NakliOS

A desktop in your browser for the entire NakliTechie collection — folders, windows, a dock, spotlight search, drag-and-drop. 40+ single-file apps in one place.

Crate

A personal cloud folder. Files live in a bucket you own, encrypted before they leave your browser — AES-256-GCM, BYOK, no NakliTechie accounts on the path.
