Hi, I’m Abu Hanzla 👋

Your Profile
I’m a passionate Software Engineer on a continuous learning journey. Currently working as a Jr. Software Engineer at Zylo Solutions while pursuing my Computer Science degree. This space is my public learning journal—a collection of every insight I’ve learned, every mistake I’ve made, every project I’ve built, and everything I’m currently mastering. Think of it as my second brain, open to the world.

What This Space Is

This isn’t just documentation. This is my real-time learning journey. Here you’ll find:
  • What I’ve Learned - Concepts, patterns, and insights from real projects and problem-solving
  • What I’m Currently Learning - Work-in-progress notes on new technologies and approaches
  • Project Breakdowns - Not just the final product, but the thinking and decisions behind it
  • Problem-Solving Approaches - How I tackle DSA, system design, and real-world challenges
  • Mistakes & Lessons - What didn’t work and why, because learning includes failing
  • Future Version Guidance - My notes today for my future self (and anyone else benefit­ing from the journey)
Whether you’re here to learn something specific or following my growth as an engineer, you’ll find honest, practical insights from someone actively building and learning. Location: Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan
Status: CS Undergrad (Graduating 2027)
Current Role: Jr. Full Stack Engineer @ Zylo Solutions
