What I’m Up To 🤸🏽♂️
🐧 Linux Journey
I recently installed Arch Linux with Hyprland on a refurbished ThinkPad T480 — my first time ever using Linux. It’s been a challenging but exciting dive into tiling window managers, dotfiles, and using the terminal for everything.
💻 Projects in Progress
- Building my personal portfolio using Astro and MDX — both are new to me, and I’m learning a lot as I go.(I’m also using React as my safe space for components.)
- Preparing for a freelance fullstack project coming up soon — brushing up on workflows and planning ahead.
- Doing freelance automation work using n8n and Make.com, streamlining workflows and building useful tools for clients.
📚 Teaching & Mentoring
I’m giving private coding lessons to an 11-year-old student, teaching basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
We’re currently building a “choose your own adventure” game in vanilla JS — it’s been a fun and creative way to learn.
🧠 What I’m Learning
- Astro content collections and MDX workflows
- Better component structure with React inside Astro
- Brushing up on Web Scraping
- Deeper patterns in JavaScript
- Zsh and Linux command line skills
- Shell scripting for automation and productivity
🎮 Just for Fun
- Getting into Linux conifguration
- Exploring pixel art and digital drawing with Aseprite
- Playing around with AI tools for fun ideas and side experiments
