About Me
Developer by craft, problem-solver by nature.
I'm Talha Akbar, a full-stack developer from Bahawalpur, Pakistan. I build fast, reliable web applications with Laravel, React and Node.js — and mobile apps with Flutter and React Native that people actually enjoy using.

My Story
How I got here
I started the way most developers do — curious, self-taught, and slightly obsessed. Late nights turning ideas into working code taught me more than any tutorial could: how to break big problems down, how to keep going when nothing works, and how to finish what I start.
That habit turned into real work. At ThinkCode I grew into a full-stack developer, building production systems like PropAdmin — a property operations console with dashboards, verification queues and payment monitoring — and client websites that are fast, clean and built to convert.
Then mobile pulled me in. At softwarehouse24 I've shipped six React Native apps — food delivery, ride-hailing, property, matrimonial and analytics platforms — learning what it really takes to put software in people's pockets.
Today I'm also pursuing a BS in Software Engineering at The Islamia University of Bahawalpur, going deeper into the fundamentals while I keep building. My goal hasn't changed since day one: build software that works beautifully and solves real problems.
