About me

My nickname is lch361, but you can always call me Lich. I am a software developer and system administrator with occasional interest in team work, organization, leadership and technical writing. Most of my experience comes from self–learning and numerous projects that I either participated in, created, organized or contributed to. My experience counts 4 years of programming and exploration of technologies.

A passion for exploring strange new technologies, seeking out new systems and new ideas, and boldly coding what no one has coded before.

About the website

The home page is divided into three thematical sections: my projects, my articles and my contacts, the first two options are available as separate sections.

My projects are in range from websites and command line applications to an MCU firmware and Linux kernel modules. Programs are mostly implemented in low–level languages (currently my favourites are Zig, Rust, occasionally use C if I have to), although sometimes high–level languages also come in handy (Python, sometimes Bash). Many of these projects are entirely my idea, created, expanded, implemented and engineered by me. Thus, almost every project has a whole backstory behind it, as well as some deep thoughts and architectural nuances that I additionally write down in projects section. This page, however, lists only projects which I’m most proud of and which demonstrate my latest advancements.

My articles are my own technical writing practice. There will be articles ranging from simply sharing personal experiences about using unique technologies to scientific researches on unique topics with reliable conclusions and references. These articles also reference my projects a lot, and vice versa. Despite me still exploring the article writing for myself, I hope my publications will be interesting, clear and insightful to technology explorers like me. Speaking of which, this page lists the articles that I consider my best achievements in research and technical writing.

Finally, my contacts are for those who genuinely got interested in me or my creations. You are welcome to contact me by any available means if:

you want to work together with me;
you want to ask a question or leave a comment regarding my article or project;
you want to give/receive a technical advice.

Apart from messaging me, you also can:

contribute to my projects in the repositories;
supporting me materially with one of the currencies.

Both of these actions are greatly appreciated, and will help with my further development, advancements and the cause. Together we’re doing our best.
