Chennai · writing code since 2011

I build with WordPress and help others get better at it.

I’m Rajan, a WordPress engineer in Chennai, India. I build plugins, contribute to WordPress core and translations, and help people make their first open-source contribution. This is where I write down what I learn, so the next person has an easier time.

Giving back, on my own time

What I contribute

2015

Started translating WordPress. Translation editor since 2020, which means I review other people’s strings now, not just write my own.

Core

Props in two WordPress releases since December 2020. Small patches, but each one taught me how the project really works.

2019

First WordCamp talk, and organising the local meetup. WordCamp organiser since 2021. These days I spend contributor days helping first-timers.
