About Me

I work a regular 40-50 hour job at a factory currently. In my free time I work on open-source projects. Most of my time in recent years has been devoted to the rust language. I have used various languages in the past (C, HTML/CSS/JS, PHP). I started programming when I was only 10 years old, and have made things ranging from websites, to game servers, and robotics. Most of my work is now devoted to my project Basalt (A GUI Framework/Library).

Main Open Source Projects:

  • basalt
    Library that provides window creation, input handling, and most importantly a UI.
  • vulkano
    Safe and rich Rust wrapper around the Vulkan API
  • ilmenite
    Library for shaping, placing, and rasterizing text primarily for Basalt.

Additional Open Source Projects:

  • boundless
    Yet another keyboard/mouse/audio sharing project
  • pyroxene
    An application menu and launcher built upon Basalt.
  • burden
    Error/Warning Pager for Cargo

Closed Source Projects:

  • olivine
    Cross platform multi-service music player for streaming services. (Tidal & Deezer currently)
  • an unnamed game
    A voxel based game that aims to be an air/space combat game with planes. (Inspired by Ace Online/Air Rivals)

Funding Use

I spend a lot of time programming and doing code review voluntary. Any sponsorships are greatly appreciated.
