Varun Biniwale

I’m Varun.

Hey! I'm Varun and I’m 17 years old. I live in Switzerland, and I was born in Canada. I’m interested in software engineering and cyber security - I got into coding at the age of 7, and I have been hooked since.

I lead a coding club at my school, and I have helped teach children robotics at a workshop. I am organizing an officially licensed TEDx event at my school.

I write code.

• I create beautiful and responsive websites and web apps to make the world a better place.
• I’m working on many projects, one of which is a Kahoot alternative, called Quickz that is already used around the world.
• I have made several other websites, including an animation maker, a social network, a live chat, and various specialised tools.

I find bugs.

• I partipate in various bug bounty programs.
• I have found security vulnerabilities in software made by organizations including Google, Youtube and MIT's Scratch Foundation.
• Sometimes I post about my adventures here.
