My name's Simon and I'm an embedded software developer by profession, I also own a small business located in Germany.

During my dayjob, I develop telematics and diagnostics software using ISOBUS for a German agricultural machinery manufacturer.
My small business develops smaller-scale applications for multiple platforms, hosts web applications, email and gameservers, along with providing IT services and custom PC-building services.

I also have an Internet presence where I will occasionally write a little blog post, tutorial or something similar and then delete it because I didn't like it after a few weeks!.

If you're here, you've probably stumbled on one of my open-source projects and might be looking for documentation. Not to worry, I have a link for that, too! It's not the prettiest portion of my website, but I'll get to that eventually. At least it's permanent darkmode.

My main machines which I use for everyday tasks, like gaming, developing and just general gits and shiggles are in no particular order:

• M1 Pro MacBook Pro (16")
• Custom-Built Gaming PC running Windows (+ WSL) / Linux
  • Ryzen 7 7700X
  • RTX 3080 10GiB
  • 32GiB DDR5 5600
  • MSI X670E MPG Carbon
• Xiaomi Mi 13 Pro

I develop software for a living and as a hobby, and have done so for over a decade now. In the meantime I've come to love and hate some programming languagues.

Here's a list of my favourites (in no particular order)!

• C++
• C#
• Lua
• Bash
• Swift

As with all things in life, some languages just don't fit a given person's personality. Be it you've shot yourself in the foot, or the "core features"/"selling points" of the language are simply infuriating to you.

For me, those are:

• Python
• Visual Basic
• JavaScript (ECMAscript, whatever)
• Perl

You have friends, you have enemies and then you have those in life, whom you don't really know, but are curious to know more about. For me, these languages are in that weird area of my brain where they make me think about them, and try to find reasons to love or hate.

• Rust
• Objective C

My projects range from public to private, to weird semi-complete WIPs. A lot of these I've started but due to circumstances in my life, couldn't complete, or found the current state usable enough to just keep them as-is.

A lot of recent projects have come into life because of my private IT stuff, but also because of passion projects at work, where I've created better versions for my personal use.

Just scroll through my repositories and see if you like anything.
