Passionate developer and visionary educator who built Dark Code from the ground up — making world-class programming education accessible to every aspiring developer in Bangladesh and beyond.
I'm MD. Santo Sarkar — founder, CEO, and the driving force behind Dark Code. My journey began at 16 when I wrote my first Python script and realised that code is the most powerful creative tool in the world.
I built Dark Code with a single obsession: to create the most engaging, practical, and community-driven programming platform for learners in Bangladesh and beyond. Every feature, every course, every game carries that mission.
When I'm not building products, I mentor developers, contribute to open-source, and explore the bleeding edge of AI and full-stack engineering. My goal is simple — to put a million developers on the map from Bangladesh.
Founded Dark Code in 2023 — grew to 10,000+ active learners within the first year.
3+ years building scalable web apps with React, Node.js, Python, and cloud infra.
20+ courses built, hundreds of developers mentored from zero to their first job.
Proud to represent Bangladeshi tech talent on the global stage.
"Code is not just a skill — it is the most powerful language in the world. My mission is to ensure every aspiring developer in Bangladesh has the tools, knowledge, and confidence to speak it fluently."MD. Santo Sarkar — CEO, Dark Code
