Introduction

Hi there, I'm venashial. I love programming, designing UIs, making games, and creating vector art. I also love to read sci-fi & fantasy books, watch animated shows & sitcoms, and listen to musicals.

Programming

Programming is a core part of who I am and who I will be. It's hard to put into words the joy of seeing a function work after hours of trial and error. For better or for worse, the problem solving nature of coding is weaved into my mind, whether I'm sitting at my desk or going on a hike.

So what do I program? I create websites and servers with Typescript & Javascript. I contribute to open source projects, like modrinth/knossos for fun and to better the app for everyone. In addition, I have a plethora of my own projects, most solve problems I've encountered or test a new technology I've learned.

How do you write code? My setup normally consists of VSCode, iTerm2, and Firefox, plus some other browsers for ample testing. For websites, I use a front-end javascript framework such as Svelte (Kit) & Vue (Nuxt). For servers, I use Deno & NodeJS and containerize it with docker plus docker-compose. To deploy websites, I've used Vercel, Heroku, and GitHub Pages, but I also self host projects on occasion with Portainer.
