About Jainil Prajapati (Jaainil)
I'm Jainil Prajapati (known online as Jaainil, handle @jaainil). I am a full-stack developer and DevOps engineer based in Anand, Gujarat, India. I build web applications with Next.js and Node.js, containerize them with Docker, and run the Linux servers they live on.
Right now I'm Lead, Business Development, AI & Automation at Confianca Pharmazon in Ahmedabad, building technology for the pharmaceutical industry. Before that I spent a year at Aexaware Infotech in Vadodara, building client applications and the CI/CD workflows that ship them.
In open source, I've merged more than ten pull requests into Dokploy's templates and I maintain Writenex CMS on npm, a visual editor for Astro content collections.
Before that I founded an independent tech publication that reached 5,000 monthly readers. The archive lives on in the field notes section.
