Hi, I’m Priyeshkumar Chikhaliya, a frontend developer based in Göttingen, Germany. I bring 3+ years of experience building scalable, user-centered web apps with React, Next.js, and modern JavaScript. I’m currently pursuing an M.Sc. in Applied Computer Science at the University of Göttingen, in the thesis phase, expecting September 2026, and I’ve contributed to AI-powered web systems serving 100K+ users, including the production interface for GWDG's academic LLM platform. I’m fluent in English and German (B2) and enjoy turning complex requirements into accessible software. My work focuses on robust frontend architecture, token-based chat interfaces, multimodal prompts, and high-performance UIs. I’ve designed interfaces from dashboards to chat experiences, with attention to accessibility (WCAG 2.1) and cross-platform compatibility, and I thrive in collaborative research and industry settings to ship impactful products.
