π About Me
Hi, I'm Swaraj Puppalwar, a Full-Stack Web Developer and the Founder & CTO of Lioran Group. I started my journey in tech at the age of 11, driven by curiosity and a deep interest in how software systems work under the hood. Over the years, that curiosity matured into a strong focus on backend engineering, system architecture, and building production-grade platforms.
Rather than chasing trends, I aim to be a reliable, systems-oriented full-stack engineerβsomeone who writes clean, maintainable code and designs systems that can evolve and scale without collapsing under complexity. Today, I actively build and operate real-world products while leading the technical vision at Lioran Group.
