About Me

I am unium (shocking, I know), an Indian developer and designer. I mainly specialize in C, C++ and Java, however I can also do web development.

My hobbies apart from programming include painting, biology, boxing, wrestling, and football. I also play Minecraft, HoI 4, CK3, ULTRAKILL, and Geometry Dash!

History

I'm a high school student from Bihar, India. I started programming late 2016/early 2017. I started with Java (a move I still regret) and C. I learned primarily through books borrowed from family, later using online resources for Kotlin, Lua, etc.

Stack

• Languages: C++, C, Java, PHP, HTML5, CSS, Javascript (Bun runtime).
• Environment: Debian Linux with KDE Plasma.
• Misc: I have a cat!
