Hey! ![](../assets/Hi.gif)
I'm raf, most commonly known as NotAShelf on the internet. I am a professional sailor and a sailmaker. Intermediate DevSecOps and SysAdmin in training. My freetime mostly goes towards working on occasional open source projects and DevSecOps activities. I enjoy writing command-line tools that are practical.
I am well-versed in full-stack technologies, I mainly focus on backend applications using Go.
- š± Iām currently learning Rust, ReactJS and the Nix expression language. I despise Javascript, Nix despises me.
- š¬ Ask me about Multiplayer FPS/(J)RPG gaming, chess and Tintin/Lucky Luke comics, a good movie to watch, but NEVER programming. Unless, of course, you want to be confused.
- ā Fun fact: I cannot write C++ code to save my life, yet I passed a CS class using nothing but C++ back in college.
- š Iām currently working on:
- neovim-flake, no-nonsense, highly extensible neovim configuration packaged through a nix flake
- Docr, a barebones static site generator in Go
- CatApi, a minimal API for serving pictures of your cats. Features a convenient frontend
- Fylgja, a cross-distro package manager and convenience utility
- Proxima, a Discord bot that is written in Javascript with a Typescript rework on the way
- Hyprkeys, a powerful and easy to use keyboard utility designed for my favorite Wayland Compositor, Hyprland
- Nyx, the first child of chaos and also an alias for my configuration for the ultimate declarative Linux distro, NixOS!
- Kamishiba - replacement to the now-deleted manga-cli from AUR [WIP]
