Devin's Development

Full Stack Developer

Howdy, and welcome to my website! I am a full stack developer with 3 years of professional experience building scalable web applications, and many more years as a hobbyist programmer, hacker, and tinkerer.

As a professional developer, I like delivering well thought out and robust solutions to business problems. I strive for efficient, maintainable, and testable code and analyze the ask to choose the right tools for the job. I prefer practicality over idealism. I am very adaptable, and can learn any language or framework I am unfamiliar with relatively quickly.

As a hobbyist, you can usually find me tinkering with my system/setup configs (I use Arch, btw), or working on one of my game projects. I've always had an interest in lower level applications, like OS kernels and game engines, and have started the plunge in making my own 2D game engine.

This site, as well as the Drawguesser demo, are self hosted on my own server. With deployments managed using Docker and Coolify.
