Technology is shaping our world at incredible speed, and our children are growing up surrounded by screens, apps, and digital experiences. Instead of spending those early years scrolling through social media, I wanted to create something meaningful—something that lets them learn, play, and grow at the same time.
That vision became Think Like Engineers, a learning platform designed specifically for Malaysian children. It's a space where kids can explore the fundamentals of programming through fun, interactive video games. Not textbooks. Not boring tutorials. But playful experiences that help them think like real engineers.
Why I Built Think Like Engineers?
While working in tech, I've seen how valuable digital skills have become—yet many children still lack access to engaging learning tools. Today's young generation starts using computers, tablets, or iPads at a very early age, so why not guide that screen time into something productive?
Think Like Engineers was created with one simple purpose:
👉 Turn screen time into learning time.

🔧 Building Solo — One Step at a Time
Think Like Engineers is currently a one-person project.
I'm developing it while balancing my full-time job, so updates will come gradually. But the passion behind the project is strong, and I'm committed to continuously improving the platform.
