My programming story

I don’t have a really long time as a coder. But let’s see how did I started.


I always loved tech, even before I started to learn programming. I remember that, around 2017 and 2019, my robotics teacher teached me how to use Java and Pascal on a basic way, using the Karel interface. I think that’s where I started to get interesed in programming. But I didn’t go ahead on that for a long time.

I started (seriously) on June 2020, when I tried the online course Python for Everybody, by the University of Michigan. I completed it, and then, I wanted to extend my Python knowledge.

But nothing happened (at least, in the web), until May 3, 2021, when I signed in at GitHub for learning purposes. After that, I started to learn advanced stuff, and then I started to contribute to the open source community.

The first repo where I did something was pip. I’ve been on a few other places after that, and some highlights can be found here, at my “Project list”.

At November 2021, I joined my first game jam: GameOff 2021. That’s also the time when I got involved in videogame development (something I’m still doing) and when I created one of my first decent projects, Diddi and the Bugs.

And currently, I’m haging around some projects, hacking and still learning to be more helpful.
