About Me
Primarily a "mid-level" backend developer, I have a particular enthusiasm for writing minimal, clean and performant code. I have experience with C, C++, C# and Java, as well as pfSense. From the beginning of 2019 I have been studying computer science at Auckland University of Technology. Some of my primary software interests are programming languages and operating systems.
It should be noted that most of my projects were created either to solve a particular problem for myself, or to experiment with something I found to be interesting. This means that they are often poorly or not at all documented, and frequently have major shifts in trajectory mid development.
Notable Projects
libokv
A minimal C library containing commonly used functions.
coreutils
An implementation of core software utilities, written in C.
OBFC
An optimising compiler for the Brainfuck language, written in C.
OBFI
An interpreter for the Brainfuck language, written in C.
optget
A command-line argument parser, written in C.
OAR
An experimental archive file format, written in C.
This constantly changes and frequently breaks as I change my mind on its design, and is very much an experiment that should not be used for anything important.
Chrono
A minimal full-screen clock for Android, written in Kotlin.
This is my bedside clock, that is all.
