Srinagar: A 13 year old student from Srinagar has drawn attention for sustained work in software creation and digital learning. Uzair Malik, a Class 9 student from Syedpora Eidgah, has developed 31 applications along with websites and chatbots through independent study.
Uzair began learning coding in 2021 after observing app development work by a family acquaintance. Curiosity about digital systems led him to explore online learning platforms. Video tutorials and structured courses became his primary learning tools. Over time, he completed more than a dozen courses focused on web and application development.
Early projects included small scale applications for hotels and vehicle services with booking features. These projects offered hands on exposure and practical confidence. Several of these applications are under verification and await public release.
Uzair later expanded into artificial intelligence tools. He has developed seven chatbots designed for conversation and utility based support. He views artificial intelligence as an area with strong public value and learning scope.
One of his key initiatives focuses on a no commission digital platform. The idea aims to support small operators and young users without platform fees. His upcoming project Free Vnce currently runs in web format and will launch as a mobile application. The platform targets digital asset exchange and skill based income generation.
Uzair links technology use with social responsibility in Kashmir. He believes mobile phones should serve learning and skill growth rather than harmful habits. Family support played a central role in his progress. His parents and friends encouraged steady learning.
Uzair plans to pursue advanced technical education at an Indian Institute of Technology. He also works on an AI driven video editing application using prompt based commands. He views coding as a pathway for jobs, access, and youth empowerment.
