I was frustrated with the inability to edit rides on Strava and I couldn't find a free tool on the internet to help me out. So naturally, I made one myself.
It's live and free to use on this website. The webapp is open sourced and you can view all the code and sample files in this github repo.
- Import rides and display them as overlays over Google Maps as a base layer.
- Draw and drag new vertices to points that were not recorded.
- Edit and move vertices on paths that may have been incorrectly placed.
- Delete vertices that are superfluous to reduce size of path.
- Draw and edit shapes to select vertices in bulk for deletion.
- Export coordinates in several different formats including CSVs and polylines.
I had a tab hoarding problem and this is how I solved it.
A WebExtension to snoozz your tabs and windows now, and have them wake up automatically later. It's completely open source and published everywhere for free.
The feature packed app is written in vanilla JS with a focus on speed, performance and privacy.
Visit Snoozz.me to see all the features, changelogs, usage statistics and all that other fun stuff.

Available in all the major browsers:
I'm primarily a front end developer, but I've worked all across the web development stack. I specialise in building responsive and progressive web apps with an emphasis on practical UX.
I am definitely more of an engineer than a designer, but I have an obsessive need to develop perfect UIs down to the pixel. I prefer to use intuitive animations and simple interactions to create lightweight and bloat-free webpages.
This is an updated list of the tools I've used in the past and comfortable using again in the future.
since 2018
I dedicate a huge amount of time to the outdoors - hiking, biking, backpacking, bikepacking, and glamping car camping.
I use all the googling skills I have learned as a developer to find obscure travel blogs and uncongested trails.
Almost all of these photos were captured on the same phone I have been using since 2016.
Since 2018, I have been using a little GPS thingy to record over a 1000 rides across the two "metro areas" where I've lived. Every single one of those rides (and a hike or two) is proudly displayed here.
Mumbai
San Francisco
I am a front-end developer who spends most of my free time offline.
I'm constantly zooming around the streets of Bombay on a fluorescent green cycle (and a red helmet) in sandals with no traction. Yes I know my bike is always dirty. No it doesn't bother me at all.
What else? I like naps (who doesn't??), extra spicy food, accidentally rubbing my eyes after eating extra spicy food, and oxford commas too. I'm always down for any kind of outdoor activites (even the more dangerous ones - but dont tell my mom, will just send her safe looking pics later).
I have a degree in Computer Science. I have worked in several different engineering roles at startups and mega corporations. My main interest has always been in design, interactions and user experiences.
Things that I really like:
- Venn diagrams
- Dogs with wiggly butts
- Cats that are obnoxiously loud
- Any thing that comes with a map
- Two person cereal
Things that I don't like:
- Raisins (and also people who like raisins)
- Anyone that tells me that cotton ear-buds are bad for my ears
- Mosquitos and scientists who support the mosquito agenda
- People who tell me get a haircut
- Room temperature drinking water
