Rakesh Raja I build products people open every day, not demos that die in a repo.

Freelance developer across browser extensions, custom web apps, WordPress systems, and conversion-minded product UI. Deep when the stack demands it. Clear when scope has to stay honest.

Featured modules

Real products in production or active build: AI browser agents, extension + API bridges, WordPress plugins, and a full service brand site. Same craft across stacks.

Rudra AI

A side-panel agent that acts in the browser and your local folder, not another summarize-this-page box.

Does
Tool-calling loops: tabs, page text, click/type, navigate, local list/read/write with confirm gates.
Why it matters
Browser AI and coding agents usually live in separate worlds. This binds both with BYOK models and project rules.
Role
Product architecture, TypeScript/React MV3 UI, tool registry, streaming agent loop.

Rudra Inspect

A side-panel CSS inspector for any page — fonts, colors, headings, contrast, and a live element inspector without leaving the tab.

Does
Scans typography and palette, audits heading structure, checks contrast pairs, highlights matches on-page, exports a design kit.
Why it matters
Design QA and client audits usually mean DevTools archaeology. This keeps the workflow in one calm panel built for operators.
Role
Product UI, MV3 side panel, on-demand content script injection, content-script inspector overlay.

Technical surface

Not a single-stack identity. WordPress is a deep specialty; custom apps, extensions, and product UI sit in the same shop.

Custom development

  • Web apps & admin tools
  • APIs & integrations
  • PHP / JS product backends
  • Dashboards & workflows
  • From brief to deploy

Browser extensions

  • Chrome / Edge MV3
  • React + TypeScript UIs
  • Side panels & content scripts
  • Tool-calling AI agents
  • Session & storage models

WordPress systems

  • Plugins, themes, Elementor
  • REST, nonces, capabilities
  • Performance & hardening
  • Support product funnels
  • Migration & recovery

How I work

  • Scope honestly, ship tightly
  • Prefer durable systems over demos
  • Document for operators
  • Own the maintenance path
  • Product thinking with craft
~/about/rakesh-raja profile

About

I am a freelance developer and product builder. WordPress is a major lane, not the whole road: I also ship browser extensions, custom apps, integrations, and front-end systems that have to survive real users.

I build tools and products operators actually use: extensions, apps, custom systems, and WordPress when that is the right stack. WPGuru is one service line under that work, not the whole story. Technical depth, product judgment, calm execution.

What I take on

Selected work across stacks. If it needs a real builder for product logic, UI, or integrations, we can map scope cleanly.

Custom app development

Internal tools, dashboards, APIs, and web products shaped around how your team actually works.

Browser extensions

Chrome/Edge MV3 products: side panels, agents, site bridges, and UIs that stay fast under daily use.

WordPress engineering

Plugins, themes, Elementor systems, performance, hardening, recovery, and client-grade admin UX.

Product & conversion UI

Brand sites, offer architecture, technical SEO, and front ends that turn craft into booked work.
