Thank you Akshay for creating Namaste DSA. 3 months back I was always struggling. Now I am able to solve most LeetCode easy problems and many medium problems without any help.

I didn't even know Flutter but I shipped a production-grade application in the Play Store with great UI and next-level functionality.

Akshay, after 6+ years of experience, I learned React basics from your course and started building apps. I was happy that I learned React.

Thanks Akshay for this wonderful video. I believe first principle problem-solving is very important. Conceptual understanding of CS fundamentals will play a pivotal role.

I've been following Akshay from my first full-time job interview and even today, it's been 6 years. The man shows up to save the day. Heartiest gratitude.

As someone with no work experience or CS degree, I find DSA to be an extremely fair interview assessment because it's a skill anyone can develop using open-source resources.

Man, your energy is next level. You put your heart and soul into explaining every concept deeply.

Hey Akshay, this is very useful and informative. Consider creating a video on design patterns and SOLID principles, as your way of explaining concepts will be easier to grasp.

Thank you, Sir. I am solving DSA questions in JS with ease only because of you.

This video provided a necessary reality check. Very good analysis, man.

What could be better

Creating content around someone’s professional existence—and then having the audacity to put them on the thumbnail just to spark more panic—has sadly become the new normal.

Who the f*** cares about your opinion, brother? Find a real job instead of selling your third-standard courses.
