Meet Alok Kumar
Software Developer | AI‑Assisted Engineer
Software developer building production applications using modern technologies like MERN, Supabase, and AI‑assisted development tools such as Claude Code. I explore and share practical workflows, developer tools, and AI‑powered engineering practices. Creator of AI Engineer Lab.
What I build
Section titled “What I build”I work across the full stack, combining modern web technologies with AI‑assisted development to ship real products.
- Production web apps (MERN & Supabase) – End‑to‑end applications using React, Next.js, Node.js, Express, MongoDB, and Supabase for auth, storage, and real‑time features.
- AI‑assisted development – Using tools like Claude Code to accelerate development workflows, write better code, and solve complex engineering problems faster.
- Developer tools & workflows – Building and sharing practical tools, scripts, and workflows that make developers more productive.
- Technical content – Writing honest, implementation‑first guides on developer tools, AI‑powered engineering, and modern web development.
Through AI Engineer Lab, I share practical guides on AI‑assisted development, developer tools, prompt engineering, and modern web development for working engineers.
My stack
Section titled “My stack”Languages & frameworks
- TypeScript, JavaScript, Python
- MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React/Next.js, Node.js)
- Supabase (auth, database, storage, real‑time)
- REST and GraphQL APIs, authentication, and performance optimization
AI‑assisted development
- Claude Code and AI coding assistants
- Prompt engineering for development workflows
- LLM integration in production applications
- AI‑powered code review, debugging, and documentation
Engineering practices
- System design for modern web applications
- Developer experience (DX) and tooling
- Clear, reproducible documentation
AI Engineer Lab
Section titled “AI Engineer Lab”AI Engineer Lab is where I document practical approaches to software development with AI‑assisted tools.
You’ll find content on:
- AI‑assisted development workflows – How to use tools like Claude Code effectively in your daily development.
- Modern web development – Building production apps with MERN, Supabase, and modern frameworks.
- Developer tools – Reviews, comparisons, and guides on tools that make engineering more productive.
- Prompt engineering – Practical techniques for getting better results from AI models.
- Production patterns – Architectural patterns and best practices for shipping real applications.
Every article focuses on practical value - real code, honest trade‑offs, and workflows you can use today.
Principles
Section titled “Principles”- Ship real products – Everything I share comes from building actual production applications.
- Honest about trade‑offs – Limitations and edge cases are documented alongside the wins.
- Practical over theoretical – Working code and real workflows over abstract concepts.
- Developer‑first – Content is written for software engineers who need to build and ship.
Work together
Section titled “Work together”I help teams and founders who need to:
- Build production web applications using MERN, Supabase, or modern frameworks.
- Integrate AI‑assisted development tools into their engineering workflows.
- Create clear, implementation‑ready technical documentation.
- Develop technical content (guides, tutorials, tool comparisons) for engineering audiences.
