About

From the database to the deploy — I work across the whole stack.

I'm Binit Koirala — a software engineer and co-founder in Nepal who works end to end, from Django backends and DevOps pipelines to the mobile apps people actually open.

At Fasto, the company I co-founded, I own the backend and infrastructure: Django services, CI/CD, and deployment built to stay fast and reliable as things grow. Before that I spent years at Code Himalaya moving from Flutter developer to senior, and led mobile at StretchYo, a US habit-building app.

Along the way I've shipped apps to the Play Store with 50,000+ downloads, wired up payments and push notifications, and learned to care about the unglamorous things — uptime, clean architecture, and software that scales without drama.

FAQ

Questions people ask.

Who is Binit Koirala?

Binit Koirala is a software engineer and co-founder based in Nepal. He works across the full stack of production systems — Django backends, cloud infrastructure and DevOps, and Flutter mobile apps. He co-founded Fasto, Nepal's first quick-commerce platform, where he owns the backend and infrastructure.

What does Binit Koirala do at Fasto?

At Fasto he is a co-founder responsible for the backend and infrastructure: Django services, database design, deployment, CI/CD, and the monitoring that keeps 10-minute delivery reliable as order volume grows.

What technologies does Binit Koirala work with?

On the backend: Django, Python, REST APIs and PostgreSQL. For infrastructure: Docker, Linux, CI/CD pipelines, deployment and monitoring. On mobile: Flutter and Dart with Firebase, push notifications and payment gateway integrations.

Has Binit Koirala shipped apps to the Play Store?

Yes. He has shipped Flutter apps to the Google Play Store with more than 50,000 combined downloads, including work at Code Himalaya and leading mobile development for Sangatha (formerly StretchYo), a US-based habit-building app.

Where is Binit Koirala based?

He is based in Nepal, between Kathmandu and Dharan, and has worked with teams remotely including a US-based product team in California.

What does Binit build?

Binit builds production systems end to end — Django backends and the infrastructure they run on, plus Flutter apps for Android and iOS. At Fasto that means the services behind 10-minute delivery; before that it meant shipping mobile apps that passed 50,000+ downloads on the Play Store.

Is Binit an app developer?

Yes. Binit has worked as a Flutter app developer since 2021 — first at Code Himalaya, where he grew from developer to senior, then leading mobile development for Sangatha, a US-based habit-building app. His apps are live on the Google Play Store.

What should you look for in an app developer in Nepal?

Ask what they have actually shipped to a store and then kept running, rather than what they have built. Production mobile work is judged on what breaks after launch: payment flows that fail halfway, push notifications dropped by aggressive battery optimisation, and apps that stall on a weak mobile connection. A developer who can talk concretely about those has shipped something real; one who only discusses features has not.
