Design and engineering notes

A Formula 1 enthusiast’s developer portfolio.

I’m Pranav Attarde, a full stack developer and AI engineer in Pune. This portfolio uses motorsport as a way to explore my work: a race start introduces the site, projects become interactive models, and experience lines up on a starting grid.

From lights out to the work

Five red lights lead into handwritten “Lights Out” lettering. A small racing car pulls a deforming cloth reveal across the screen. The car belongs to the entrance; the main focus stays on my name, engineering background and projects.

Three-dimensional interaction, with a purpose

The FrontWing circuit, PanCred credit model and HawkWatch identity model respond to pointer movement. Featured projects move through a reversible scroll sequence, while the smaller builds appear as interactive racing tyres. The journey uses a starting grid to connect education and internships.

How the portfolio is built

The site uses semantic HTML, CSS and JavaScript with SVG and custom WebGL effects. Its project content exists in the initial HTML. Keyboard controls, a skip-intro button, responsive layouts and reduced-motion alternatives make the work reachable without relying on every animation.

Where the racing interest becomes software

FrontWing is my Formula 1 race-intelligence project, combining telemetry, AI investigations and strategy analysis. It is the most direct link between my motorsport interest and the systems I build.
