Sharing his experience with Cook, Srivastava said, "I recently had the incredible opportunity to visit Apple Park in Cupertino after winning the Swift Student Challenge. From the moment I arrived, I was amazed by the innovative design and vibrant energy of the place. The highlight of my trip was presenting my project to Tim Cook, which felt like a dream come true."

Srivastava mentioned that Cook's genuine interest and insightful feedback were incredibly inspiring and made all his hard work feel worthwhile. "This unforgettable experience confirmed my passion for technology and motivated me to keep pushing boundaries and making an impact," he added.

Who is Akshat Srivastava?

Akshat Srivastava, a 22-year-old from Varanasi, India, is currently studying at BITS Pilani K K Birla College in Goa. His passion for coding began at the age of 16, and one of his notable creations is an app called MindBud, inspired by the fun times he spends with his nephew.

MindBud aims to bring back the classic games and activities from Srivastava's childhood. It's designed to help children think creatively and analytically while having fun. The app features four engaging mini-games that kids can play with their family and friends.

To develop MindBud, Srivastava used technologies such as SwiftUI, AVKit for sound, PencilKit, and FileManager, ensuring the app is smooth and enjoyable to use.
