Before Parsons, I was an engineer. I studied at BITS Pilani, and it gave me a way of thinking, but not a design vocabulary. Parsons changed that. I arrived in New York for my MFA in Design and Technology, and these are my notes from the foundation bootcamp in web. Graduate level, right at the start. I put my first notes online in twenty thirteen, from a hostel room. Every day since, at least one person somewhere in the world studies from my notes. They are free. The full notes are a PDF on this page. Read them here, or open and download them. Learn. Share. Repeat.

These are my notes from the web part of the foundation bootcamp at Parsons School of Design, New York. Graduate level, at the start of my MFA in Design and Technology, which ran from 2018 to 2020.

The bootcamp had a coding part, a design part, and a web part, and each set of notes has its own page here. This one is the web side.

I came to Parsons from Electronics and Communication Engineering at BITS Pilani. Engineering gave me a way of thinking in systems. Parsons gave that instinct a design vocabulary. The web bootcamp was where code and design first started to meet in the same room.

I have been putting notes online since 2013, from a hostel room, free for anyone who wanted to learn. At least one person in the world has studied from my notes every single day since then. These notes are part of that library. They are free.

The full notes are a PDF, embedded right here on this page. Read it here, or open it to download and keep.
