Hallo!
Thanks for coming to my minuscule corner of the internet!
I’m a 15 year old software developer (hobbyist?) from Wales 🏴
My interests are typically a wide area of things ranging from tinkering with embedded projects, DevOPs and computer science to 3d design and science.
Studying for
Contact me!
What I use (I have no clue what I’m meant to put on this website so this filler will have to do)
Everything I use, along with configuration files and theming, is available in my Nix dotfiles
Code editor
I use Doom Emacs since I can use both Emacs bindings and VIM bindings in a great looking GUI with low resource usage. Catppuccin Mocha as well btw.
I no longer use Emacs in favor of Neovim. Emacs was just too buggy and a pain to get working.
I have used other editors in the past, for example VScode, but I never really liked them.
OS
I daily drive
I am never touching that vile piece of software called “Microsoft Windows” ever again.
Language of choice
I don’t really have a language of choice, I will just go with whatever is easiest or that I want to use. However, I am quite fond of Rust.
Web-browser
I only use the finest browser. Which is, of course, Firefox.
In all seriousness, I use hardened version of Firefox as my web-browser.
I may switch back to Librewolf at some point since I dislike quite a few
I’ve also been thinking of switching to a webkit based browser, since Firefox is a bit of a sinking ship, but I haven’t heard of any good FOSS webkit browsers.
Nyxt also looks pretty cool as it's engine agnostic and hackable like Emacs.
Other stuff
Programming languages I know or want to learn
- Rust (segfaults scare me)
- Python (I can't imagine actually using this without Nix, virtual envs are actual hell)
- JS (Pretty fun, amazing to use with sveltekit o(>ω))
- Swift (May aswell if I'm going to be a soyboy macOS user)
- Java (Having a job in the future sure sounds real nice)
- SQL (technically not a language but (also its pronounced ESS-QUE-ELL))
Stuff I wanna mess around with / things I want to do
- Go to a Will Wood concert and meet the fellow (He makes the funky music)
- Graphics programming (I just think it'd be fun to do)
- ML (It's just pretty cool. Also theres an NPU in apple silicon so I may aswell take advantage that.)
- Make a custom keyboard (It'd be fun and interesting to design and build a keyboard from the ground up.)
- DevOPs (It's pretty useful and it seems fun. FOLLOW UP FROM LATER DATE: After having done some DevOPs for this site I can comfortably say it's p a i n. Althought, it is quite fun)
