Mentoring

7+ Years of Development Experience

Mentoring for Mobile Developers

I offer one-on-one mentoring for developers who want to improve their skills in Android, React Native, and overall code quality. The sessions are practical, flexible, and focused on real problems you face while learning or working.

Hi, I’m Salil

I’m a mobile developer with over 7 years of experience working on Android and React Native applications. Over the years, I’ve worked on real production apps, handled bugs, performance issues, and architectural decisions — the kind of things you don’t always learn from tutorials.

I started mentoring because I enjoy helping developers avoid common mistakes and grow with more confidence.

I currently take a limited number of mentees to keep the sessions focused and personal.

What I Can Help You With

  • One-on-one mentoring sessions
  • Android development using Java and Kotlin
  • React Native fundamentals and real project guidance
  • Understanding clean code and basic architecture
  • Code reviews with practical feedback
  • Interview preparation for junior and mid-level roles
  • Career guidance based on your current level
  • Help with personal or freelance projects
  • Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) basics and migration guidance

Areas I Work In

Android Development

Working with Java and Kotlin, understanding app structure, handling data, and writing code that is easier to maintain.

React Native

Building cross-platform apps, understanding components, state management, and common mistakes beginners make.

Code Quality

Improving readability, reducing unnecessary complexity, and learning when simple solutions work best.

Architecture Basics

MVVM and basic architectural concepts explained in a simple, practical way without overengineering.

API Integration

Working with REST APIs, handling responses, errors, and understanding how apps talk to servers.

Debugging & Problem Solving

Learning how to think through bugs, crashes, and performance issues instead of just copying fixes.

How Mentoring Works

Quick Intro Call

We start with a short call to understand what you’re learning, where you’re stuck, and what you want to achieve.

Simple Plan

Based on your goals, we decide what to focus on — projects, concepts, interview prep, or code improvement.

Regular Sessions

Sessions are flexible. We discuss concepts, review your code, and work through problems together.

Ongoing Support

You can ask questions between sessions and get guidance as you continue learning and building.

Who This Is For

  • Beginners starting Android or React Native
  • Developers confused by architecture concepts
  • Students preparing for developer interviews
  • Career switchers entering mobile development
  • Developers wanting cleaner, more readable code

Session Pricing

Pricing depends on session length and frequency

$10–50 per hour

Long-term mentoring packages are available

BottomNavigationView

In this tutorial we will learn, how to add a bottom navigation to your activity and use it to switch between different fragments. We will fill our BottomNavigationView with 3 menu items and then check which item was selected with the OnNavigationItemSelectedListener interface and a switch statement. We will then create the appropriate fragment and display it in a FrameLayout with help of the getSupportFragmentManager, beginTransaction and replace methods. Link & Dependencies:- developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/packages.html#design Add a directory in res folder and name it as menu. After adding menu folder in res folder add a xml file and name it bottom_navigation.xml. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"> <item android:id="@+id/nav_home" android:icon="@drawable/ic_home_black_24dp" android:titl...

Why Ethereum Smart Contracts Make It Hard to Get Payments

Image
  The Unique Role of Smart Contracts in Ethereum One of Ethereum’s standout features is its ability to host diverse applications on its blockchain using smart contracts. However, these smart contracts, while powerful, sometimes complicate simple tasks. For instance, determining the amount of ETH deposited into a specific Ethereum address can be surprisingly complex. This is because you cannot understand the actions of a smart contract without executing it. Synchronizing Blockchain Internals and Externals Smart contracts operate exclusively within the blockchain's data, reading and writing information stored on-chain. This limitation does not prevent the creation of valuable applications, such as multi-signature wallets or tokens like ERC-20 and ERC-721, which rely solely on on-chain data. However, most practical applications also require interaction with off-chain systems. Take cryptocurrency exchanges, for example. Exchanges facilitate converting ETH into fiat currency or vice ver...
