greetings,

a curious quest for code and clarity is my personal blog. here you will find my writing on topics related to software development and others including projects and experiments i work on. feel free to look around. here are some links to get you started.

the author

after 4 years of acquiring my computer science degree, having reversed several linked lists, learning about support vector machines and what an abstract syntax tree is, there wasn’t much left to do but transform the world with all that computer science knowledge one commit at a time. so here i am now with a beat-up acer and a dream on my back

	me, developer builds stuff, mostly in android linkedin twitter github

🚧 currently cooking

as the lone chef in my digital kitchen, i made the all-too-common mistake of cooking too many things at once, with most inevitably ending up on the proverbial back burner. from now on, i’ve limited myself to just two burners.

• albatross research and review
  • a spaced-repetition and active-recall based personal knowledge application to explore, archive and interface with information.
• timecraft time blocking and crafting
  • time blocking app with purpose built features that make time tracking, blocking easier than it’s ever been before

🎉 served

these are my older projects that have already been completed. they have been cooked to perfection satisfaction and served on my github for your perusal

news basket - a news app

a minimal & efficient news app, built with the latest and greatest in android, that fetches the latest

• complete with an on-boarding flow, splash screen and a beautiful modern UI using jetpack compose.
• modular and clean architecture using dagger hilt for dependency injection and data store library for user preferences
• fetches the latest news from select sources from the news api using retrofit

kurunai - a benchmarking dsl

a lightweight kotlin library that provides a simple idiomatic dsl in kotlin for benchmarking and profiling your code

• defines, composes, and executes benchmarks easily using kotlin dsl
• a benchmark is essentially a time block which is a named block of code that needs to be timed for the benchmark. this block can be further composed of nested time blocks.
• having a nested composable structure allows for detailed benchmarking and profiling of code.
• supports modular benchmarks and generates detailed performance reports

taskinator - a task app

no project list is complete without a good old-fashioned task app. a simple local task management app for personal task tracking

• features include task creation, updating, deleting, prioritizing, filtering, and searching
• built with xml views, kotlin flows, and roomdb, following mvvm architecture for a clean codebase

there are several more projects sitting on the shelf or on my github. for now im trying to stay focused on the important ones. anything of note will be published above.

the blog

this blog is my journal and mental archive, where I publish my writing on the things I explore and work on. a lot of my writing focuses on android at the moment, but you’ll also find random experiment or friday night philosophications . I also publish shorter posts just for the joy of it. have a look around. enjoy.

you can find my socials along with my resume in the footer. don’t hesitate to reach out. enjoy!
