Hi, I'm StarFahx, and this is my site! You might not guess it from looking at it, but I'm a professional web developer who specialises in react and dotnet web api development. I also firmly believe in not over-engineering simple sites, so while I could have probably made something horribly complicated (but very pretty) in react for my personal site, I figured that would be a big waste of everyone's time. If you want to see some of my web work, check out my projects below.
I'm agender (any/they) and I just really like fanfiction. I enjoy gentle walks, cartoons, and telling silly stories with my friends (I play a lot of TTRPGs). I have a bachelor's degree in physics, and since then I've spent almost nine years working in software (though I'm currently unemployed), but I'm considering going back to get a masters at some point.
I am pretty staunchly anti-capitalist, and favour open access to technologies and information. I'm also very anti-AI: I quit my job and have gone self-employed to avoid being forced to use it. If all of the above doesn't sound too bad, you should follow me on Mastodon! I don't post much, but I'm trying to get better at it.
I love game development! I actually took my first job in software to try to learn enough code to make games. I don't make too many (though hopefully that will change) but my friends and I do semi-regular game jams amongst ourselves, as well as entering some public ones. Here's some stuff I've made in the past that's public-facing:
