About Me | That_One

Hey there. I'm Kyle. I am %age% years old and I like to program as a hobby.

I've been programming for almost %start% years now, right at the start of Covid-19, and it was love at first sight. I don't plan on stopping anytime soon.

I originally started with the programming language C#, but since then I've spread to other languages, namely C++, Python, Java, and JavaScript.

I love software development and logical thinking. Some fields I have an interest in are (in no particular order):

Graphical programming (not to be confused with graphic design)
General algorithm development
Library development
Game development
Server and website development

Here's how I'd rate my programming skills

Beginner

Expert

I'm definitely no expert (compared to some serious computer scientists I look up to), but I'd say I'm past the Intermediate stage. Somewhere in the middle of those two.

Here's some noteworthy stuff I've done:

Created and maintained Nerd_STF as a solo project.
Created Trick Or Treat, Rebuild, and some other small Itch games.
Developing Brigade Laboratories, a game that I'm staying mostly secretive about. Learn More

I like to reinvent the wheel in software development. For example, Nerd_STF. I know there is a bunch in Nerd_STF that already exists in a different library, and it's likely better. But I feel like doing it myself teaches me more than just using somebody else's code. I wouldn't have learned nearly as much if I just used a different library.

That's all I have to say. If you want to contact me, you can at kyle@thatonenerd.net
