## About NamasteDev

NamasteDev offers practical programming education through courses, projects, interview practice and supporting learning resources. It serves students learning programming, developers building web and AI applications, and developers preparing for coding or frontend interviews. The published teaching approach combines explanations with hands-on exercises and projects.

The platform was founded by [Akshay Saini](https://namastedev.com/pages/about-us#akshay-saini), the creator of Namaste JavaScript. The website operator named in the [terms of service](https://namastedev.com/pages/terms-of-service) is Akshay EdTech Pvt Ltd. NamasteDev is the platform name; it is distinct from the operator, individual course names and instructors. [About NamasteDev](https://namastedev.com/pages/about-us) provides the public background.
