Hello,
I'm Arnav Somaghatta

What I Build

I'm Arnav Somaghatta, a high school student developer based in the USA. Most of what I build starts as something I wanted to exist for a community I'm part of, and then gets rebuilt properly once it turns out other people want it too.

I write Discord bots in Python with discord.py, backed by MongoDB for anything that has to survive a restart: moderation tooling, entertainment commands, utility commands, and server management features. I run and tune Minecraft servers, which means plugin configuration, permission systems like LuckPerms, staged updates with backups, and performance work on tick rate and memory use. I administer the Ubuntu server that hosts this site and several of my other projects, and I hand-write websites in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript rather than generating them from a template.

How I Work

The habits matter more than the stack. I use permission checks and real error handling instead of hoping nothing goes wrong, I log failures so they can be diagnosed later, and I test changes before they reach anything people depend on. Deployments go out in stages with backups behind them, so a bad release is something you roll back rather than something you survive.

Where to Go Next

• About me: my background, my full skill set, and what I do when I'm not writing code.
• Services: the three kinds of work I take on, and how I approach each one.
• Development timeline: dated projects and results, newest first, including a third-place finish at the WWPIT programming competition.
• Contact: email, GitHub, and Discord, plus what to include in a first message.
• Privacy: what this site does and does not collect.
