About Anmol

I have been working as a professional technical writer since the start of 2024, started my journey with UX designing in 2021 to slowly transitioning to open source software development, and finally landed in the writing space where I have been writing for international startups and following my passion for full-time.

How I reached the Top 5% of GitHub!

In 2022, I decided to hit reset on my life when I found open source. That sparked an obsession that led me to contribute to 40+ projects, make 200+ pull requests, join 500+ discussions, and somehow land in the Top 5% on GitHub in just a couple of years.

I became an open source maintainer and created an open source guide for beginners which ended up getting featured in the GitHub community. Thanks to the experience acquired by working on diverse codebases, I've seen the bad, the good and the better of turning ideas into reality on the internet.

Technical Writing is my passion! ✍️

I believe technical writing is the space where my cross-domain knowledge is the most useful. I started creating technical content in 2024 and in just a few months, I have collaborated with startups trusted by Fortune 500 companies, some valued at more than $50M, worked withfounders and CEOs of several international teams , and increased their organic traffic exponentially.

I've reached a total of 1M+ audience on devto, gained more than 40k followers and most of my blogs have landed on Google's first page.

I've already done it for 10+ funded startups including YC-backed. If you are looking for a writer who understands developers and delivers real results, just shoot me an email at hi@anmolbaranwal.com.

While I still love coding and being involved in open source, my main focus right now is actually in the technical writing niche helping companies to grow and reach a wide audience.

I am following my dream and my passion has helped me to go all in. To help others and share this knowledge for free:

Working remotely by choice and passion

I am a big supporter of remote work. Working remotely for the past months has given me the time and the freedom to improve my skills. That freedom also helped me to do a lot of side work like growing my community, improving my social presence, and achieving so much more in the process.

Giving back

Working and grinding for years just so you can afford things seems so empty to me. Society pushes the idea that happiness is tied to what you own, not what you do.

So, what really brings joy to me?

Helping others and making a difference in their lives. The irony is, that you could own everything in the world, but spending just a few minutes each day making someone else's life better brings more happiness than anything else.

While it's not easy to find time in our busy lives, I do my best to support other folks in DMs, communities, and on socials. I've reviewed social profiles like GitHub, participated in discussions, created roadmaps for others, gave career advice with actionable tips for completely free.

I've done a whole lot more which many don't find time for and inspired others along the way.

Besides that, I sometimes participate in hackathons (won 7+ competitions), play badminton, do cooking, brainstorm ideas and keep learning new stuff.

That's my story.
