A Bit About Irith​

Irith Katiyar is a seventeen-year-old high schooler who loves to code. He first started coding when he was in seventh grade and fell in love with it. He began coding in Java and then moved on to Swift/Xcode so he could learn how to build iOS apps. Type-Speed was his first app, and he has built four more apps since then – check all of them out above! Other than learning Swift and app development, he also has taken AP Computer Science in high school (Java), has learned how to make websites from scratch (HTML, CSS, Javascript), has passed the USA Computing Olympiad Bronze Test (Java), and has learned concepts in artificial intelligence and machine learning (Python). Computer science makes Irith happy because it allows him to create a functional product from start to finish. In the future, he hopes to utilize his coding skills combined with his passion for biology to help improve the world. Irith has a twin sister named Irika who helped him design some of his app icons since Irith is artistically challenged. Aside from coding (and of course deciding the color schemes for his apps), Irith enjoys playing squash, dancing, traveling, playing Mario Kart, binge watching shows on Netflix, and meeting new people.
