👋 Hi, I'm Dheeren!

I'm excited to share that I’ve officially started my DevOps learning journey. For the next 2 years, I’ll be learning and building consistently—and sharing my progress every week here on Hashnode and on LinkedIn.

🔍 What is DevOps? (As I Understand It)

DevOps is a combination of development and operations. It’s about automating processes, improving collaboration between teams, and delivering software efficiently and reliably.

From many resources and expert opinions I’ve come across, I now understand that mastering the basics is essential before diving into advanced DevOps tools.

📚 My First Focus Areas

I’ve decided to first focus on building a strong foundation, starting with:

  • 🐧 Linux OS

  • 💻 Shell Scripting

  • 🌐 Networking Concepts

  • 🔧 Git & GitHub

  • 🖥 Virtualization (e.g., VirtualBox, VMware)

These skills will help me understand how systems work at a deeper level and will prepare me better for tools like Docker, Kubernetes, Ansible, etc.

📌 Final Thoughts

I’m super excited to be learning in public.
If you're also learning DevOps or working in the space, feel free to connect or drop tips!

Hi, I'm Dheeren — currently pursuing my Bachelor's degree in Information Technology from Father Agnel College (FCRIT). I have a deep interest in web development, especially in the MERN stack, and have worked on several projects including MY-docs, Predictive Maintenance systems, a WhatsApp clone, and custom chatbot applications. Over time, I’ve developed strong skills in Java, data structures, and algorithms, and I’m always excited to solve complex problems through technology. Recently, I’ve become very interested in DevOps and am actively learning tools and technologies like Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms to enhance my development and deployment workflows. I’ve also participated in national-level hackathons such as SIH, Terna, Kongsberg Maritime, and NIT Jalandhar, and was fortunate to achieve recognition in some of them. These experiences have helped shape my collaborative, problem-solving, and quick-learning mindset. Always open to learning, collaborating, and building impactful solutions!
