PDF viewer created using Electron framework and PDF.js

Hello there, fellow <coders/>!

I am Praharsh, a passionate programmer 💻 and an information security enthusiast who loves to develop efficient and robust software. From early on in my life, I started to fall in ❤️ with technology. Probably, creating simple shapes in LOGO as a kid was my first exposure to programming.
Over the years, I have collected several tools 🛠 in my arsenal, as a result I am extremely flexible with technology stack and enjoy developing software for varied platforms.

First solve the problem, then write the code.
