Hobby Programming
One of my primary hobbies is programming, writing mainly in Python and Lua for my projects. See my public repositories for a subset of this work. Some larger examples include:
| Project | Description |
|---|---|
| Personal Data | A comprehensive API and scraper system, which allows the user to generate CSV files automatically from various sources, and process them further, for example to generate text summaries or iCalendar output. |
| Favro Sync | Filesystem in Userspace for the Favro Task Management System. |
| Infernal Interpreter | Simple interpreter and stack tracer for the AMD x86-64 ABI. |
| Tiger | Various small projects written in the Tiger toy language, like an Scheme (Programming Language) interpreter. |
Game Development
Sometimes I develop games with friends under the Takunomi label. We have one full game, and several game jam prototypes, after participating in Nordic Game Jam throughout the years. I mostly use LÖVE for my game engine needs, and even built my own 3D engine on top of LÖVE.
