about
-programmer, linux user, overall nerd
+
- i write web apps, cli tools, bots, and such. you can find some of them over at the projects page.
- my favorite languages are rust and bash, but i can write js/ts, c, c#; and to a lesser extent, java (minecraft modding), python, brainfuck, php,
- and lua.
- i'm a quick learner. i like to step out of my comfort zone and try out technology i have little to no experience with. i make learner projects
- with new stacks and i come out more knowledgable in the end.
+ i have been writing code since i was 10. the first language i learned was c# (with
+ winforms), and i was really interested in malware analysis. predictably, danooct1
+ was among my favorite youtubers at the time.
+ though time changes people, and it has changed me quite a bit. i am still really
+ into cybersecurity and malware analysis, but my
+ main thing has shifted towards webdev.
+ nowadays, i specialize in backend web development and write web
+ apps, cli tools, bots, etc. you can find some of my personal projects over at
+ projects.html.
+ my favorite languages are rust and bash, but i can write
+ js/ts, c, c#, go; and to a lesser extent,
+ java (minecraft modding),
+ python, brainfuck, php, and lua.
- my favorite web stack is rust (language) + tokio (runtime) + axum (web framework) + hyper (http server) + askama (templating engine) + sqlx
- (database driver) + postgresql (database) + lighttpd (proxy/web server) + linux (os) + aarch64 (architecture). and musl if you care about
- libc.
- also experienced with php (7, plain), express.js, mysql & mariadb, sqlite3, nocodb, electron, ejs, and i'm always willing to learn.
+ learning new things is one of my passions. every time i want to
+ learn a new technology, i will try to make a non-trivial starter project in it to
+ give me a head start.
+ most of these learner projects serve a purpose, though sometimes, i will make a
+ potentionally useless
+ yet involved project just to
+ learn a new thing or practice my skills.
my favorite/go-to web stack is

did you know? this website has a total of 0 bytes of javascript
- in my opinion, simple websites like this shouldn't require a powerful system to render. i want my site to be accessible on an old smartphone, on
- your 14 year old computer, curl | bat -l html
, a new high-end computer, and the sbc you found on the sidewalk.
