Portrait of Shuaib Abdulgafar

Shuaib Abdulgafar

Primarily a software engineer, specializing in frontend development for web and mobile applications.

Outside work, I enjoy playing table tennis, hanging out with my people, writing random thoughts and watching podcasts.

I'd love to pursue all my interests simulteanously: writing, playing table tennis, building useful products and learning new stuff. I'm particularly interested in modern finance.

Projects I'm working on

I have several product ideas, and I am bringing them to real users.

01

Krimson is a platform being built to make blood donation simpler, more visible, and more impactful. It aims to help people understand why donating blood matters, share real stories, and highlight opportunities to give through nearby drives and centres. For donors, Krimson is designed to make staying involved easier by showing when and where blood is needed, sending timely reminders, and helping them follow their donation journey. For hospitals and donation centres, Krimson is intended to improve coordination and communication, making it easier to reach donors quickly and ensure blood gets to those who need it most.
