  • I always try to build things that I might want!

    I am fortunate to have a lot of other hobbies, so I build little things for myself for those hobbies.

    One of my first scripts I ever wrote around 2004 was a Perl script to get what song was playing and automatically update my IM “status”.

    I also made databases of comics and CDs for myself too.

    The easiest way to get better is by doing, and doing is way easier when it’s something I care about.







  • This is an independent project for fun.

    KRetro’s development started in 2023 with a desire to help build more apps for Plasma Mobile (shout out to Devin for the idea and help along the way). I worked on it for a while, but unfortunately got busy with school and other things. In addition, the Qt 6 transition came and went, which left KRetro effectively abandoned.

    Thankfully, in 2024, Dexter Reed came through with an MR to port the KRetro codebase to Qt6. And finally, in 2025 with more time on my hands, I finally picked the project back up, bringing us to today!

    The name? The K-prefix naming has mostly been phased out these days in KDE for new apps… you could say it is a retro naming scheme 😉



  • Yep, whatever template I use looks really nice. Very professional.

    It’s actually the most editable format my resume has ever been in, too! I started using LaTeX over a decade ago. I just update it when I need to and it prints out exactly the same way to PDF.

    I will proselytize something like this for a resume any time. I am very curious about typst as well!
