About Me
I am a small time developer from 🥝 New Zealand with a lot of free time on my hands. I spent my days developing web applications mostly 🕹️ Dashboards and similar applications. But I do occasionally dip my feet into the world desktop applications with (Kotlin) and (Java). But I do prefer to use Web technologies such as (Typescript) and (VueJS). I've also recently been using quite a bit of (Rust) and (Go) and have been really enjoying using them
